Portland Lunch 2.0 at Cube Space courtesy of Silicon Florist

I had a great time at lunch today. It was called Lunch 2.0. We played networking games like meet someone you don’t know. I met some new friends and networked with some old ones. We shared some job related war stories and tall tales.

The lunch was a great idea. The Portland Lunch 2.0 was a celebration of the 1st anniversary of Rick Turoczy’s metamorphosis into the Silicon Florist.

Lunch 2.0 originated in the valley and now Portland has adopted it. We are actually attending monthly.

I met and shared stories with a few people that are affiliated with stealth startups. I met many new people one was Dave Kresta from davekresta.com. Dave is a marketing expert.

I also talked with an old friend, Mark from Crave Catering Portland, Oregon. Mark has just earned a “RecycleWorks” Award from the City of Portland, Oregon Office of Sustainable Development. Mark is establishing a Sustainable Catering Association.

This Lunch 2.0 is a great idea. If you get a chance to attend one I would suggest you do.

Happy Birthday Silicon Florist!

Gary Pool
