Every week, we dig through our events calendar and hand-select five events worth checking out. Here are our top picks for this week:
The basics of raising capital, Mar. 28 at 5 p.m.
For startup leaders looking to raise funds or brand-new entrepreneurs who don’t know anything about the capital world, the Founder Institute is hosting a workshop about the basics of raising money.

Should your brand take a stand?, Mar. 28 at 5:30 p.m.

Finding a great co-founder, Mar. 29 at 6 p.m.
It’s often tempting to try and go it alone, especially if you’re a first-time entrepreneur thrilled at the prospect of being your own boss. But business means partnerships, whether that’s with a co-founder, investors or sponsors. Join SheSays to learn about how to find a great co-founder and how to keep your partnership healthy.
Make the most of existing ethernet infrastructure, Mar. 29 at 6 p.m.
Don’t let that sweet, sweet gigabit ethernet go to waste; join the IoT Colorado Meetup group to learn about how you can make the most of your company’s existing ethernet infrastructure. The organizers plan to serve pizza, so make sure you RSVP.
March pitch battle, Mar. 30 at 6 p.m.
Ready to test out your pitch in front of a crowd? Throw down with other entrepreneurs at Startup Denver’s pitch battle. If you’re not quite ready to pitch, it’s still a great learning experience, and who knows? Maybe you’ll meet a new friend or co-founder.
