3. In an effort to encourage true collaboration, I take the time to add each person
who comes to a Meetup to this portfolio. Soon I will add key tags about each
member so what they are interested in, looking for, and can offer to others are
searchable online.
Some folks didn’t know they needed to join online and just showed up to pitch
something or to network which is fine, but if you are one of these people,
please take one minute to officially join us or you won’t get your page filled out
or regular updates on what the Meetup is doing.

I am very passionate about human potential and creativity. It saddens me that
the majority of people, especially young generations, are not tapping into their
full potential and therefore are not able to have a clear vision of their real
passion. Consequently, their time and resources are not well spent and wasted
sometimes into boredom, if not society disservice. Therefore, I tried to focus
most of my studies and research toward understanding innovations initiation,
human potential, and creativity, and how technology could be employed to
advance them in both education and outside.

CEO, Aquameta. Portland-based software company, whose mission is to empower non-programmers
to create software and in doing so open up a new space for creativity and innovation on the planet.
Darwin said that those species that can't adapt to change will eventually die, when rapid change
becomes necessary to survival. We as a species have, by embracing software in the way we have,
inhibited our capacity to adapt to change. Our dependence on programmers to change the software
that runs our world is a ticking time-bomb, a massive liability to our species. Software is the nervous
system of our modern-day social organism, and yet most of us can't change it.
What would you like to get out of belonging to this group?

world.

Who We Are:
We are a social entrepreneurship that facilitates opportunities for individuals
who feel “stuck” in their current life to see and experience other lifestyles focused on
social, environmental, and personal well-being. We accomplish this by connecting
Americans to host communities abroad that are practicing lifestyles of well-being. In
doing so, this opportunity also encourages the protection of these host communities by
recognizing the important knowledge and practices inherent in them.
Currently we are looking for
Fundraising support, crowd funding, social media, videography and website
development.
Accounting support- bookkeeping and budgeting, cost analysis and projections.
We could also use some advice for setting up a business bank account (credit unions)
and phone line, and minor details that could be overlooked.

Tkinden@revolvewaste.com
Americans generate 22 billion lbs of fabric waste every year. What most people don't
know is that fabric is highly recyclable... only about 5% of what goes into a recycling
process is discarded as waste. On top of that, the clothing and fabric industry is
riddled with human rights and environmental concerns.
My company sees fabric waste reduction as an opportunity to make positive changes
within our community. We are creating a system to recycle more unwanted fabrics,
educate apparel industry professionals and the community at large, and create jobs
for those who need them most. This work will build a model for regional fabric
recycling that can be used across the country and do a whole lot of good. Join the
REvolution!

As an expert in sustainable business finance, I assist social entrepreneurs to access capital and
get business credit. I specialize in financing energy efficiency, renewable energy, and
alternative fuels projects and ventures and in raising equity.
Establish business credit: Need a loan or line of credit? Need working capital? Have you
established business credit versus personal credit? Have poor business credit? We're experts in
preparing businesses to access capital efficiently. You'll come away with access to $50,000 or
more after completing our online tool. It works. It's quick. We'll walk you through the process
in a few minutes with an online demo from Commercial Credit Advisors, a Portland firm.
Equipment leasing: if you've been in business at least two years, consider conserving your cash
and managing risk with lease financing: no down payment, quick approval, even use tax
credits. Merchant advances: if you need working capital and process credit cards, you can
qualify for a merchant cash advance from a reputable source.

Communities - neighborhood networks, re-skilling, social relations, local food

products, and local services. It was in this spirit that I helped found Transition

My technical background and networking would be helpful for anyone seeking a technical team
member for their business. I also have worked in several leadership and logistics positions over the
years, so helping people organize and get themselves up and running is what I like to do.
At the moment, I still need help building my network in a broader sense. Having a primarily
technical network, I'd love to meet people from other backgrounds. Also, I've recently hit upon a
cool new business idea, though it doesn't fall in the realm of social enterprise as I see it.
It's a new technology that uses sound to locate someone/something (like GPS) at a very accurate
resolution of about 1cm. I have many ideas for applying this technology
to finding items in grocery stores, locating your car in the parking lot and several other
scenarios. I think we could certainly find a socially responsible application of this
technology and I'd love to brainstorm with more people about it.

Do you already have a social issue you want to address? If yes. please give a brief
description.
There isn't a cohesive and comprehensive website featuring reviews of landlords. I think
this is a niche that could provide valuable transparent information for prospective
tenants. It could also provide an incentive for landlords to not abuse their power and just
be kinder. As someone who is sensitive to loud noises, I'd also like to explore ideas for a
resource that provides information of noise levels of various places in the city.
