By creating a different approach to marketing solutions for sustainable economies, MarketShift extends their best practices in this private workshop, and shares some of the stories of PDX Lounge partners
What is PDX Lounge?
PDX Lounge began as a mechanism to raise visibility for products, services and policies feeding Oregon’s sustainable economy. In two years the initiative has grown in size and scope, gaining national acclaim, while incubating new forms of collaboration for economic gain and environmental benefit.
MarketShift Strategies hosts a free private cocktail party for local business leaders engaged in the sustainable economy. Each Upside Hour offers superb networking in a private setting, serves great drinks and features thought leaders sharing insights on a given topic.
This is an opportunity for businesses to identify synergies and cultivate deeper levels of business collaboration. The Upside Hour is an invite-only event. If you are a business leader interested in attending, please request an invitation.
