Work-late Wednesday - 23 Oct 2019

Wednesday is work-late day, most weeks. Which usually means email catch up, or other admin-type things in the evening. However, I managed to plow my way through about 150 emails over the weekend and Monday so... just a few stragglers that require more attention and time. Unlikely to focus on those today.

Here’s a fun set of websites, potential allies, groups in the same space etc (not comprehensive but these are the tools I’m looking at these days): websites

Spoke with the team behind Naloxofind again today, they’re still at the same place they were after they launched in Summit Co. in Ohio over the summer. Connecting me with Greg McNeil at Cover2 and Community of First Responders (update: we’re chatting tomorrow).

Met with Shaugn at CIRES to go over lease terms and confirm we’re ad idem on most of it: offer to lease will come our way on Monday, probably.

Bit of a cock up on my part with the UBC Social Impact Innovation Jam... it was supposed to be tomorrow and I just totally lost track of it until they called me earlier today and sent an email. (Somehow I missed their last email as I was cleaning stuff up...) Anyway, Kenzie is taking it on and will be there (Robson Square) tomorrow to present ourselves and some problems for a team of mostly business students to have a crack at.

In other news I’m managing to get my daily reading in (Brave New Work) which feels good. Also got confirmation from Mary Childs that a purchase agreement between me and Brave is a logical and clear cut way to ascribe investment shares to me as compensation for my contribution. I’ve drafted up some heads of agreement and want to run that by a couple of people and then bring it to the coop. Did a quick cleanup on the budget doc and I think it’s time to transcribe that into the runway tool, or perhaps Mario would like to do that as a way of going through the numbers?
