Tuesday TownHall @ the 'Square
You know that feeling when you're working alone and need someone to bounce ideas off? Or when you crush a goal but have no one who really gets it to celebrate with?
That's what this fixes.
For the last 17 months at NedSpace, this weekly ritual has been helping Portland entrepreneurs, freelancers, and builders connect authentically.
***
Here's How It Works
Everyone gets 3 minutes to share three things:
Who you are & what you do - Practice your pitch in a judgment-free zone
One win from last week - Big or small, we celebrate your progress
Something you need help with - Real people offering real solutions in real-time
When there's a crowd, we break into smaller groups so everyone gets heard.
Come early & don't be late.
***
What Happens After You Share
The magic starts when people connect the dots:
"I know someone who does exactly that"
"I had the same problem, here's what worked"
"Want to grab coffee and talk more about this?"
"I can introduce you to..."
It's like having a personal board of advisors, except they actually care about your success.

What This Isn't
Pitch fest or sales session
Place to ask for money
Traditional networking with forced small talk
Self-promotion showcase
What This Is
Real community showing up for each other
Practical help with actual problems
Celebrating wins together
Meeting people who get the entrepreneurial journey
***
Who Shows Up
Founders, freelancers, consultants, creatives, side-hustlers, career changers - basically anyone building something or thinking about it.
All stages welcome. From "I have an idea" to "I just sold my company."
***
Why This Works
Because when you're surrounded by people who understand the struggle, the wins feel bigger and the problems feel smaller.
Most "networking" events are about collecting contacts. This is about building actual relationships with people who want to see you succeed.
