Registration: https://www.meetup.com/RichardsonIQ/events/278005816/

The IQ Brew is a networking and educational series featuring short presentations from entrepreneurs, small businesses, innovation ecosystem builders, and subject-matter experts.

On Thursday, June 10 at 9:00am, hear from Cindy Shafer, CEO of Network of Community Ministries as she talks about Network’s exciting move to the Richardson IQ!

Network is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a service area that encompasses the entirety of the 14 zip codes within RISD, including the portion of these zip codes that extend into the Plano, Garland, and Dallas ISD areas. In November 2020, Network acquired a new 50,000 square foot building at 1500 International Parkway in the Richardson IQ. For Network, this new campus will transform the client and volunteer experience and provide essential resources for staff to effectively counsel, serve and support area families. Network expects to move into the new building by Labor Day, 2021.
