Entrepreneurship can be isolating—but it doesn’t have to be.

At Spark PGC 1 Million Cups®, founders, innovators, and creatives come together each week to share ideas, ask questions, and grow in community.

💡 88% of participants say they felt psychologically safe contributing.

That matters.

Because the best ideas happen when people feel supported enough to be vulnerable, curious enough to ask for help, and connected enough to keep showing up.

Whether you’re building a startup, scaling a business, or simply exploring an idea, there’s a seat for you at the table.

Join us Wednesdays at Venture X College Park! ☕
