MEMBERS ONLY

Community Sub-Hubs

Sub-Hubs are global groups within Hera Hub that meet conveniently online to leverage the community’s collective expertise nationwide.

Each Sub-Hub is equipped with a unique roadmap of pertinent business topics and working sprints for its specific business category. The one-hour facilitated discussions are led by a fellow Hera Hub member in an area of their expertise. Members meet monthly to engage in conversations, learn tools for entrepreneurship and self-growth, get accountability in implementation of lessons learned, and stay informed on important business topics.

Regular meetings support consistent growth for entrepreneurs on a timeline that is realistic for integrating new findings into their businesses. Designed in the spirit of community, members are provided with space and opportunity for continued learning within a specific Sub-Hub, while building connections with like-minded entrepreneurs. All members are encouraged to participate in Sub-Hubs, both as participants and as presenters.

Monthly Networking Happy Hours and Lunches

Every month, members have an opportunity to connect face-to-face with others at either our member-only Happy Hour or Lunch (alternates monthly). Food and drink are provided. We like to mix things up to provide a variety of experiences, so monthly events could be in our space or at an outside venue or even the outdoors! In addition to our bi-annual Business Acceleration Expo, the annual Friendsgiving potluck and Hera Hearts, which is a mastermind to help solve an organizational problem for two local nonprofit organizations.

Additionally, members often gather to eat together and learn about a relevant topic or connect more deeply with other members of the community through various forms of community lunches:

  • Lunch and Learns
  • Brown Bag Lunches
  • Waffle Wednesdays

See local event schedules as these vary by location.

Documentary & Discussion

A place to learn about and engage with various topics, such as education, the environment, and generational wellness. The aim is to connect with the community through informative and inspiring experiences. We gather to watch a talk or short documentary, and then discuss our responses and thoughts on the topic. It is free and open to members and their invited guests. Popcorn and beverages provided!

Community Conversations

A safe space to give attention to important topics, such as women’s health, building confidence, and the loneliness epidemic. The aim is to create a space where we can lean on the community to listen and lift each other up. We listen within the member community to identify a timely topic, present relevant information, and engage together through exercises and/or discussions.
