Forward Together

Entrepreneur Speaker Series

Hosted by the Cal Lutheran Steven Dorfman Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, this monthly Speaker Series is an opportunity for entrepreneurs and people who have an entrepreneurial mindset to network with each other, and learn from other experienced entrepreneurs. It is a forum where like-minded and passionate people come together to share their ideas and build relationships. The community is filled with great connections and individuals who are enthusiastic about entrepreneurship and helping new businesses get their start.

The events will begin with a keynote speaker(s), followed by audience Q&A. There will be networking before and after the speakers, so you will have the opportunity to meet our guest speakers and other participants! 

Please join us for an upcoming event, or watch and learn from the recorded speaker keynotes available in our YouTube channel playlist.
