Here are some upcoming online events!
StartupExperts December Book Club: Year of Yes — December 12th, Friday at 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM PT.
In 2015, Shonda Rhimes, the trailblazing creative force behind some of television’s most beloved series, took on a challenge that would change her life forever. She decided to say yes to everything for a year, and the results were exhilarating. Hailed as “honest, raw, and revelatory” (The Washington Post) and “as fun to read as Rhimes’s TV series are to watch” (Los Angeles Times), Year of Yes quickly became a New York Times bestseller, captivating readers everywhere and inspiring them to undertake their own YES journeys.
StartupExperts members will discuss how Year of Yes has changed how you will move into 2026!
