Follow on Google News | Crowdfund Main Street Launch Event to Introduce Local East Bay Businesses to Everyday InvestorsDATE: Friday, August 24, 2018 TIME: 6:30-9: PLACE: Impact Hub Oakland 2323 Broadway Oakland, CA 94612 EVENT DETAILS: A group of diverse East Bay businesses will be featured. Attendees will be able to engage with each of the founders of these businesses to learn more about them and invest on the spot. The featured companies include those making a positive impact in their communities, the environment, and in the lives of others. To understand the impact of investing in small businesses and startups, consider that only $43 per $100 spent at national chains stays in a local economy, contrasted with $68 per $100 spent on local businesses. This $25 difference in spending per $100 in community contribution between local and national business chains means: the difference between living wage and minimum wage jobs; reduced access to quality professionals, such as teachers and firefighters; The event is free and open to the public, but space is limited and an RSVP through Evite is required.
