Coffee Chats: Founder Stories with Bear Walker (reschedule)

RESCHEDULED COFFEE CHAT - Bear Walker, January 22 | 8:30 AM

In 2024 we heard about some incredible entrepreneurial journeys through our Coffee Chats: Founder Stories series. However, we missed out on our last edition of the year in December due to a scheduling conflict causing us to have to postpone our conversation with Bear Walker, a world-class skateboard manufacturer located right here in our backyard. We've rescheduled that chat for January 22nd (a week after our typical 3rd Wednesday time) so that we can reconnect with Bear and talk all things skateboarding and entrepreneurship!

Bear started making skateboards as a passion project in 2012. Ten years later, thanks to Bear's ability to blend art with something as functional as a skateboard, Bear Walker Industries was listed at #225 on Inc.'s 5000 Fastest growing companies! All along the way, Bear has created functional works of art with brands like the NBA, Marvel Comics, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh so you're sure to see something you love when you look into his work.

Whether you generally join us for Coffee Chats or not, you won't want to miss this one!
