Every week we dig through our events calendar and hand-select five events worth checking out.

Build your brand on Instagram, Oct. 24 at 6 p.m.

Interested in building an Instagram presence, but not sure where to start? Join General Assembly, Ad Club Denver and Scream Agency to meet fellow entrepreneurs and learn about what makes brands successful on Instagram.

Meet fellow High Country remote and work-from-home employees, Oct. 25 at 8 a.m.

Working from home can get pretty lonely from time to time (trust us — we know). And realizing you’ve been wearing the same flannel pajama pants for the last three days is a bit of a rude awakening. If you’re in the High Country, bust out of the remote-work rut and head to ELEVATE Breck to meet other remote workers, enjoy some coffee and put on real pants for a change.

Using design thinking to improve company culture, Oct. 26 at 5:30 p.m.

Design thinking is rad. It taps into our senses of empathy and creativity, and it can be used to do so many great things. Join CultureLabX to learn more about how you can apply design thinking to your company culture, and leave with some clear paths to a solution.

Web development career fair, Oct. 27 at 4 p.m.

RefactorU’s hooking up web developers looking for work at this month’s career fair. They’re venturing out of the Boulder Bubble and setting up shop at the Commons on Champa, and they’re bringing more than 20 local and national employers with them.

Startup Weekend Boulder’s Halloween happy hour, Oct. 28 at 6 p.m.

Halloween’s basically the best day of the year, so why not start celebrating early? Startup Weekend Boulder is hosting a happy hour where you can test-drive your costume, enjoy some brews and learn more about the upcoming Startup Weekend Boulder event.
