Brain Boost is a monthly brown bag event designed to build expertise, catapult the success of small businesses, and ensure equitable access to a wealth of knowledge. People from a wide variety of professions and walks of life share their experience and expertise in an educational talk. Then, with the help of a facilitator, engage participants in active conversation. The event is meant to spark inclusive conversation and circulate the abundant knowledge within Frederick’s small biz community. Participants bring their own lunch (optionally). Drinks and light snacks are provided. The Cowork Frederick Foundation (a 501(c)(3) non-profit) covers the cost of running the program and the meeting space, with the help of sponsors. Speakers volunteer their time.
