FountainBlue

FountainBlue is fortunate to partner with speakers, sponsors, volunteers, co-marketing partners, and others as we work together to support executives in Silicon Valley and beyond. Below is a list of oppourtunities to work with us.

Become involved:

• Attend one of our events and/or join the community. You will meet people who may be able to help you, and may have experienced exactly the kinds of challenges you're undergoing. Plus you'll have opportunities to assist other quality people in the network. Visit our community section for more information.

Become part of the program:

• If you are a corporate executive or intrapreneur, we invite you to participate on one of our upcoming When She Speaks panels as a speaker. Share your wisdom. Build your network. Send us an e-mail volunteering to participate in one of our upcoming events and we'll recommend you to the event facilitator.

Get Support:

• If you are undergoing challenging business obstacles, bring your challenges to an upcoming event and connect with people who are going through similar challenges, and others who can advise you on how to overcome the obstacles, or connect you with those who can help you. It's likely that someone would be willing to lend an ear, lend a hand, or share some advice.

Spread the Word:

• If you have attended an event and felt your time was well spent, spread the word to quality people in your network and be an ambassador. Together we are stronger.
• If you found value in the content from our previous programs, forward the notes to others in your network who would also benefit from the information, with proper acknowledgment to FountainBlue and the respective speakers. Knowledge is power! 

Partner with Us:

• If you are involved with another organization in the valley serving entrepreneurs and executives, we welcome you to become a cross-marketing partner. See below for a current list of partners and directions on how to become a cross-marketing partner. 
• After you have been a cross-marketing partner, let us know if you would like to partner more closely with us to jointly produce events, or to have us participate in an advisory board, steering committee or SIG. See below for a list of organizations with whom we closely partner.

Sponsor Our Activities:
