Startup Resources + Coffee

Meet us in the lower level in the back of Kavarna by the big tables!

Any of these questions on your mind as an entrepreneur?

​

"Should I be an LLC or a C-Corp, and when should I make that decision?"

"How do I know if I'm ready to apply for an accelerator program, and what do they actually look for?"

"When should I hire my first employee vs. working with contractors?"

"What insurance do I actually need as a startup, and what can wait?"

"Where can I find local funding opportunities or grants specific to Wisconsin?"

"How do I protect my intellectual property without spending a fortune on legal fees?"

"What HR policies and documentation do I need to have in place before hiring?"

"How do I connect with other founders in the area who are at a similar stage?"

"What are the most common legal mistakes early-stage startups make?"

"Are there any local resources or programs I should know about that could help me grow faster?"

​Get the answers you need.

​This is a safe space to ask any questions because there are no stupid questions when it comes to building a business.

Why? Because no one should be expected to know it all.

​Join us for a casual morning gathering where entrepreneurs and founders can meet face-to-face with key resource providers from the Green Bay area.

​Whether you're just starting out, scaling up, or somewhere in between, this is your chance to get expert guidance, ask questions, and discover the support available to help you and your business thrive.

​

​Meet with experts in:

• ​Legal services and business structure
• ​Accelerator programs, funding, and mentorship
• ​Startup community resources
• ​HR consulting and team building
• ​Business insurance and risk management
• ​Local entrepreneurship support

​

​Meet other entrepreneurs

​Find your people and make new friends that understand the founder journey. Connect with fellow founders who get the highs and lows of building something from scratch. Share wins, swap stories, and build relationships with others who speak your language. The startup path can feel isolating—this is your chance to realize you're not alone and to build a support network that extends beyond this event.

​

​Find the connections and support you need

​Come with your questions, leave with connections and actionable next steps. Drop in anytime between 7-9am—no formal agenda, just great conversation and even better coffee.

​Part of Startup Wisconsin Week – celebrating and supporting Wisconsin's entrepreneurial community!
