Our First November 12 Presenter: Dr. Bhangra of True Gem Smiles

We’re excited to welcome Dr. Bhangra, founder of True Gem Smiles in Leesburg, to the 1 Million Cups Loudoun stage!

True Gem Smiles opened its doors in March 2025, bringing compassionate, patient-centered dental care to the community. Dr. Bhangra’s focus is on creating a comfortable, trustworthy environment where every patient leaves with a confident smile — and a true sense of care.

As a startup, Dr. Bhangra’s current goal is growth — getting more people to come in, learn about the practice, and spread the word. She’s working hard on marketing but is looking for insight from our community:

  • What strategies have worked for you in building awareness?
  • How can a new business best reach and engage its local audience?
  • What creative ideas could help True Gem Smiles stand out?

Our Second November 12 Presenter: Traci Robinson-Williams of Claroti

We’re excited to welcome Traci Robinson-Williams, founder of Claroti, to the 1 Million Cups Loudoun stage!

Claroti specializes in innovation and growth strategy consulting for mid-to-large-sized technology companies navigating the mature or renewal phase of their business lifecycle. Traci helps organizations spark new ideas, refocus their direction, and build momentum toward lasting growth.

Traci is seeking honest, constructive feedback from our community as she continues to refine her message and offerings. Here’s where she could use your help:

  • She’s not seeing the traction she hoped for and is trying to determine if the issue lies in her messaging or offers.
  • Her business concept feels like a no-brainer, yet she hasn’t experienced the breakthrough she expected at this stage.
  • She’s looking for feedback on how to better communicate Claroti’s value and reach the right audience.
