UPDATE: We had a great event last night, and would love for you to join us at our next event on March 5th. We’ll be featuring Matt Flannery of Kiva.org at Town Hall on March 5th. Tickets are here: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/53835

SeaMo is pleased to announce January’s Microfinance and Microbrews at The Pike Brewery (1415 1st Ave, Seattle) on Thursday, January 15th beginning at 5:30pm. This month we are featuring Casey Wilson, the Co-Founder and CEO of Wokai, a new peer-to-peer microfinance lending platform focused on the Chinese market. Casey will be talking about the nuances of microfinance in China.

Microfinance and Microbrews is a once-every-other-month gathering to learn more about microfinance and to meet others who are interested too. There is a $5 suggested donation at the door to help cover the cost of appetizers. Contact us at ryan@seattlemicrofinance.org for more information.
