Envisioning the Waterfront Together
The Business Mixer is designed to bring serious builders, business owners, creatives, investors, community leaders, and everyday visionaries into one room with one purpose: to help shape what Oakland’s waterfront can become.
This gathering focuses on brainstorming and showcasing small businesses while opening a larger conversation around real estate, community, creative industries, hospitality, and local economic growth.
Come ready to connect, collaborate, and build something that extends beyond a single event. This is about movement, not just moments.

Build the Network
TBM exists to help people stop building alone. Every strong economy is built on relationships, trust, and collaboration.
Shape the Vision
The waterfront is an opportunity to redefine business, culture, and ownership in Oakland.
