In this edition of Making Oregon, our guest is Cameron Madill, founder of PixelSpoke (https://www.pixelspoke.com/) a Portland-based start-up that creates websites and digital marketing for credit unions and progressive businesses. We’ll learn from Cameron how he became an entrepreneur, and what he has learned from working with his father. He’ll talk about the joys and challenges of working with family, and the broader issues encountered by business partnerships. Cameron talks about bootstrapping PixelSpoke, and how the business has continued to pivot to find its market niche. PixelSpoke is also a B Corp, and Cameron discusses the rigorous process required to earn and sustain that certification. As Chair of the B Corp Board here in Portland, he’ll describe the benefits B Corps hope to generate across the economic and social spectrum. Cameron’s wide range of interests include world travel and working to help refugee families detained in the US after fleeing horrendous violence in Central America. He’ll talk with us about how these pursuits are a great test of the strength of his business here at home.
