Marketing Tips Presentation with Luca from PinePixel

Join us on Tuesday as we hear from our Main Speaker Luca Beshkov. Born in Wyoming and raised in Bulgaria, Luca Beshkov has built his career on entrepreneurship, creativity, and community connection. After moving to Eugene in 2020, he explored industries from construction to coffee before opening Mi Café in 2022—a venture that revealed to him the critical role of social media marketing in small business success. Inspired to help other business owners navigate those same challenges, Luca founded PinePixel Media, a creative marketing agency dedicated to innovative strategies and impactful results. In his upcoming presentation on Marketing Strategies, Luca will share insights from his own entrepreneurial journey and his work helping local businesses thrive.
