In this post-pandemic world, people are feeling stretched thin with overbooked calendars and a never-ending list of events to attend.

In the past couple of years, new events have been added to the must-attend list, including Northeastern University's Roux Institute, which teamed up with the Maine Technology Institute for a new event series, "Breakthrough Maine."

Other upcoming business events in Portland include "Eggs & Issues: Seriously, Another Hotel?!" on Oct. 16, hosted by the Portland Regional Chamber, Maine Community Bank's 2025 LaunchPad Live Event on Oct. 21 and the "13th Annual Gateway Cities Innovation Summit" on Oct. 28.

And don't forget the 2025 Mainebiz 40 Under 40 celebration on Nov. 6.
