What's interesting here?

"Individuals who start their day in a friendly coffee circle will never have a totally bad day... [As Starbucks changes] the flavor of its stores, it's belittling the very role that it created for itself, and for its customer. It isn't easy for all of us who used to love our cozy neighborhood Starbucks."

- Ray Oldenburg, writer behind 3rd place idea.

Starbucks Strengths

Meetup and Eventbrite encourage face to face interaction but many organizers face the issue of finding a physical space for their events.

A partnership with Starbucks will:● give Meetup and Eventbrite organizers more

options for space ● promotion for Meetup and Eventbrite● increase traffic and regulars for Starbucks

Future MeetUp/Eventbrite

Coursera, Udacity and edX are the leaders of the massive open online courses (online course aimed at large-scale participation and open access via the web)
