Program Overview: Still thinking about something from our October 14th dinner meeting? This virtual Lunch & Learn is your chance to continue the conversation with Marnie LaVigne, Ph.D., and dig deeper into the questions we didn’t have time to cover during “Building a Business That Can Scale.”

Designed as an informal, interactive Q&A follow-up, this session gives dinner attendees more time with Marnie to ask questions and explore what sustainable growth and scalability could look like in their own businesses. Maybe you are wondering whether your business is truly ready to scale. Maybe you are thinking about capital, hiring, infrastructure, or the decisions that come with moving into your next stage. Or maybe something Marnie said at dinner has been rattling around in your head ever since.

Bring that question.

🎤 Featured Speaker: Marnie LaVigne, Ph.D. – President & CEO of Launch NY. Marnie brings more than 30 years of experience working across entrepreneurship, innovation, economic development, and investment. As President and CEO of Launch NY, which she co-founded in 2012, she works with high-growth-potential startups throughout Upstate New York and has a firsthand perspective on what helps businesses grow, what gets in their way, and what founders should be thinking about as they prepare for what comes next.

📅 Date: Friday, October 16th
⏰ Time: 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.
💻 Location: Virtual via Zoom

🔐 Who Can Attend: This Lunch & Learn is an exclusive follow-up for those who registered for our October 14th dinner meeting. If you registered for the dinner, you’re welcome to register and join us for the Q&A.

💬 Bring Your Questions: We intentionally created this follow-up because a one-hour dinner conversation can only go so far. This is your opportunity to ask Marnie the question you didn’t get to ask, revisit something that challenged your thinking, or talk through what growth and scalability could mean for your particular business.

Whether you are actively scaling, preparing for growth, or still figuring out what “scaling” should mean for your business, come ready for a candid conversation about what happens after the dinner meeting ends.
