1 Million Cups In-person at the Carlsen Center
Our May in-person meetup will be held at the Carlsen Center at Sac State, as part of Capital Region Small Business Week.
1 Million Cups is your go-to destination, offering a supportive and inclusive space where entrepreneurs and their communities come together to connect, tackle business challenges, and explore opportunities. During each weekly event, two early-stage entrepreneurs present insightful 6-minute pitches about their businesses, seeking valuable advice and feedback from their peers.
While we typically meet every Wednesday morning on Zoom from 9 AM to 10 AM, we also host a once-a-month in-person gathering. This month, we're offering a hybrid meeting format, ensuring that those unable to attend in person can still join us via Zoom.
