Sometimes all social entrepreneurs really need to make things happen is a team of people who believe in you or better, will push you to the net step and Hatch is that space and more. It's a space for things "hatch," that is, get going and get started.

Specific services offered include consulting, [peer-to-peer mentorship](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-startup-club), workshops, forums, professional development programs and spaces for rent. Space is a big issue no matter where you are. If you're in a big, crowded city, it's often hard to get a seat in a noisy cafe next to a plug. And if you're in a smaller town, how do you find likeminded people? Based in Portland, Oregan, Hatch is the root of many good things to come.
