Event Details

Designers Unite!

Join the Founders League on January 15 to kick off our new series of Co-Working "Jellies." Our first Jelly is for designers (of all stripes) and will be hosted by Hannah Chung and Nicole Mercer. This gathering is appropriate for experienced and new designers alike. If you like to make things, make things beautiful, or more elegant to use then this is the meetup for you!
 
What's a Jelly?
A “Jelly” is a casual working event. It's taken place in over a hundred cities where people have come together (in a person's home, a coffee shop, or an office) to work for a set period of time. The hosts provide seating, wireless internet, and interesting people to talk to, collaborate with, and bounce ideas off of. Participants bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get your work done) and a disposition to meet new people. The work time will be followed by an optional “peer critique” session where the group can have an open discussion about individual projects/issues.

Founders League

The Founders League is where Rhode Island’s startup community comes together to make great things happen. We offer community, space and programming where entrepreneurs at all stages of development can find inspiration and support.

The Founders League was created through a partnership between Betaspring, the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce, University of Rhode Island and Brown University. We’re in launch mode and are using this phase to develop a long-term operations plan that engages a consortium of partners.
