Virtual Event l Bar and Restaurant Owners Roundtable
2020-09-10 14:00 - 15:00 UTC | This is a virtual roundtable meeting; you will be sent the Zoom link the day before the event.
Join us for a roundtable discussion focusing on how restaurants and bar businesses have fared and pivoted during the pandemic. This roundtable will focus on what three proactive, progressive local independent bar/restaurant owners have done to survive during the post-shutdown period (changes, pivots, lessons learned) as well as their plans for the new normal (based on potentially permanent changes in market conditions and customer behavior). We will allow for 15 minutes of live Q&A.

Guest roundtable panel:

Tim Baldwin, owner of both Front Street Brewery and Front Street Pub & Eatery
Mike Osborn, owner of Miss Mamie's as well as Mo Brady's and 1/2 Nelson. Mike brings a bi-state COVID-19 perspective.
Dan Bush, owner of Armored Gardens; co-owner of Devon's Complaint Department and Analog

Meet our facilitator:

Tom Trone, SCORE Quad Cities Certified Mentor and University of Iowa Venture School faculty member, will facilitate this series of roundtable discussions focused on the near-term needs of local restaurant and bar owners. SCORE QCA mentors help many local foodservice businesses today, including counseling owners as they navigate the challenges of the COVID-19 shutdown. Trone has extensive experience in many industry sectors including foodservice. He and his wife Sue, who is also a SCORE mentor, have owned and operated several restaurants.
