Joy attended this month's Entreprenuers Unpluggd event and returned to work the next morning with gobs of insight to share with everyone, thanks to inspiring talks from the founders of 37signals, Eved and Centro.

Tuesday night I attended one of the most inspiring events I’ve ever been to. Entrepreneurs Unpluggd is an event series created by Stella Fayman, a member of the founding team at FeeFighters, and Tim Jahn, a local Chicago developer, to help (you guessed it) entrepreneurs find inspiration and gain insight into the success of other start-ups. While most events geared toward this type of audience can feel like a boring lecture with very few take-aways, Entrepreneurs Unpluggd events are more like an insightful conversation than anything. They are kept to a smaller audience, and speakers present without slides.

Celebrating Mightybrew’s Three Beer Anniversary and the Opening of Brew Camp. Let’s Make Beer!

Three years ago, we invited Jared Saunders, founder of Little Green Cube and expert craft brewer, to teach us how to brew our own beer. Rather than send holiday cards, we thought it would be cool to share our homemade brews with clients and friends. And naming the beers and developing labels showcased our creativity. Mightybrew was officially born. We even won some awards on those early efforts.
