SUMMARY:Coffee + Conversation: What’s working (and what’s not) with Navy innovation pathways
DESCRIPTION:We’re creating space for a small\, informal conversation with our partners at NW Tech Bridge — and we’d love for you to join us. \nWe’re calling it a Listening Session for Innovators\, but think of it more as a coffee chat with purpose. It’s a chance for founders and small businesses who are working (or trying to work!) with the Navy to come together and talk candidly about what’s working\, what’s not\, and what could make the process better. \nWhen: Wednesday\, November 19\, 8 – 9AM\nWhere: Vibe Coworks\, Poulsbo]\nHosts: NW Tech Bridge + Matchstick Lab\nFormat: Casual\, roundtable-style conversation over coffee + pastries \nYour experiences and ideas are exactly what the Tech Bridge team wants to hear — and what other innovators will benefit from. No presentations\, no slides\, just a space to share\, connect\, and shape the future of how the Navy and innovators work together. \nIf you’d like to join us\, please RSVP by emailing Mitch Koonz by Monday\, Nov 17: mitch.koonz@nwtechbridge.org \n\n\nSpace is limited so we can keep the conversation personal.
