1 Million Cups® Naples

A startup that provides pouches and tools for industry trades and an app that helps online shoe retailers accurately determine size will be featured at 1 Million Cups® Naples.

1 Million Cups® Naples is held from 9-10 a.m. the second Wednesday of each month at the Naples Accelerator, 3510 Kraft Road, Ste. 200, Naples.

Startups get six minutes to present their business, product or service, followed by up to 20 minutes of questions and advice from the audience, which includes the public, as well as SCORE, SBDC, Greater Naples Chamber of Commerce members, entrepreneurs and business professionals.

The presenters are:
• Bully Bag & Tool, a veteran-owned industry tool solutions business that designs, manufactures and provides industry specific tools and tool pouches. BullyBag is the leading provider of inspection and field tools and pouches for roofing sales workers, contractors, estimators, claims adjusters, inspectors, CAT adjusters and others.
• Zolaio, an FGCU School of Entrepreneurship startup that created an app that allows online footwear retailers to sell more shoes of the right size, lowering their returns and saving money, while strengthening their customers’ loyalty and satisfaction.

Organic coffee will be provided by Grumpy Goat Coffee and the Florida Culinary Accelerator @ Immokalee and paid for by our event sponsor, Megan M. Kelly, Attorney At Law. Cold nitro-brew coffee also will be available.

The Kauffman Foundation developed 1MC® in 2012 as a free nationwide program to educate, engage and inspire entrepreneurs and startups over a cup of coffee. There are now 183 1MCs nationwide, with 12 in Florida.
