Coffee + Community (iSPI Members)

About the Event

On Wednesdays, we network [not the boring kind, the fun kind]. We sip beverages. We talk about our wins and challenges. We sometimes do activities. We sometimes tell stories or create playlists. We always leave happy we came.

Coffee and Community is that standing weekly check-in that you can always count on. It's a casual opportunity, so there's no pressure to prepare anything. You're invited! Every Wednesday morning at 9 AM at Innovate Springfield.
