**Update for The Bellevue Entrepreneur Network in 2010**

Hi Everyone, thank you for being patient while this group was under redesign in the last half of 2009. As you'll notice, Bellevue Entrepreneur Meetup is now Bellevue Entrepreneur Network. The new name more accurately reflects the purpose of the group. While we still meet in person, networking online through meetup, social networking sites, etc. is a big part of what we do.

Mission Statement:

1) To help local founder-owned businesses grow and become more profitable.

2) To provide a supportive environment for entrepreneurs to get together.

3) To serve as a connector to resources that will help your business grow, including other business networks, government organizations, free help and more.

4) To be a place where you can learn, be inspired, and teach.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1) Q: Why should I join the Bellevue Entrepreneur Network?
A: Bellevue is a hot bed of entrepreneurship. You might think that the reason behind this is because Bellevue is a wealthy community. While this is part of the story, the visionary thinking (think Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, etc.) work ethic (RABANCO, COSTCO, etc.) and drive to achieve (Boeing, Nordstrom, etc.) have been major reasons why the individuals in this area have created businesses of lasting value. What's more, Bellevue was just voted the best place to live and start a business according to CNN:
