Portland recently stood up a new Office of Small Business through Prosper Portland, but they didn't have anyone to run it. Until now. The inaugural leader of the Portland Office of Small Business has now been revealed. So I recorded a bonus episode to cover the news. It's Mitch Daugherty, cofounder of Built Oregon.
