Business and Beer - Presented by Startup Women NC

​Old-school networking. New-school thinking. Always on tap.

​Business and Beer is your new favorite throwback to when deals were made over drafts and ideas flowed as freely as the pours.

​​Each session packs 40 minutes of sharp, practical business wisdom- served casual, not corporate. It’s totally free and open to anyone: the business-minded, the business-curious, and the business-adjacent.

​Sign-in starts at 6:00 p.m. Drop by, grab your pint, get entered to win a free drink, and stay for the fun.

​This month's session is titled "From Idea to Identity: Safeguarding Your Business's IP," led by Venus Liles. Venus breaks down how your brand is more than a logo. It’s your reputation, your creativity, and your edge- you've got to safeguard it! This session will demystify the basics of trademarks and copyrights for founders, so you can avoid common missteps, understand what’s worth protecting, and build a business with staying power.

​Venus Liles is a Startup Attorney and the Founder of Liles Law. As a fellow entrepreneur, she understands the challenges of balancing running a business with the other demands and joys of life.
