Every Wednesday | 9:00 – 10:30 AM | Free at Launch Fayette
Whether you're launching your first business, growing an established company, or simply passionate about innovation, 1 Million Cups – South Atlanta is the place to connect with fellow entrepreneurs over a cup of coffee.
Hosted every Wednesday at Launch Fayette inside Fayette County's Center of Innovation, this free weekly gathering is designed to educate, engage, and connect entrepreneurs, business leaders, students, mentors, and community members. Developed by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation in 2012, 1 Million Cups is built on a simple idea: great businesses—and even stronger communities—are created through meaningful conversations over coffee.
What to Expect
Each week, a local Georgia entrepreneur shares the story behind their business, including their journey, lessons learned, current challenges, and future goals. Rather than delivering a sales pitch or seeking investors, presenters invite the community into an open conversation focused on learning and growth.
Following the presentation, attendees participate in a lively 15–20 minute Q&A session, offering ideas, encouragement, resources, and connections that can help the entrepreneur move forward.
The event concludes with one powerful question:
"What can we, as a community, do to help?"
Who Should Attend?
- Entrepreneurs and startup founders
- Small business owners
- Students interested in entrepreneurship
- Mentors and advisors
- Investors and business professionals
- Community leaders
- Anyone who enjoys learning from innovative people
Whether you're looking for fresh ideas, valuable connections, or simply an inspiring way to start your Wednesday, One Million Cups offers a welcoming environment where everyone has something to contribute.
Coffee is free. The conversations are invaluable. Join us every Wednesday and help strengthen South Atlanta's entrepreneurial community—one cup at a time.
