The Growth Lounge

Speaker 📣 You asked for it and I am so excited to announce your September speaker: Darragh Giltinan ✨ 20 years of marketing. Fortune 500 companies with $450M in tracked revenue. And then he walked away from all of it to rebuild the agency model from scratch using AI. His clients average a 64% revenue lift in their first 12 months. At The Growth Lounge No. 02 he is giving you the unedited version. What he handed over to AI, in what order, where it fell apart, and what it actually costs to run. If you have wondered whether AI can do more than write emails and captions, this is the talk for you. September 16. The Big Pink, 26th floor.Doors at 6pm, Darragh takes the floor at 7pm. This is what The Growth Lounge is built for. Real people. Real results. No fluff. About Event The Growth Lounge is a monthly meetup for marketers, founders, and business leaders, hosted at the Rose Room in The Big Pink, Portland, in partnership with Upstart Collective. Marketing is changing faster than most playbooks can keep up with. This is the room where Portland's marketers, founders, and builders talk about what's actually working right now, where growth strategy meets the tools reshaping it. Expect an open room of people obsessed with getting better, talking shop, and building the kind of connections that move ideas forward. Turns out growth-minded people want more opportunities to grow, so we are adding a short talk or two on growth, marketing, or current projects each month. Join us on the third Wednesday of every month through the end of the year, from 6:00–8:00 PM, at the Rose Room on the 26th floor of Portland's iconic Big Pink building. If you'd like to keep the conversation going afterward, Portland City Grill is right upstairs. Community Sponsor We are open for community partnerships. If your organization wants to help us build a supportive space for Portland's growth community, reach out.
