SiliconValley NewTech Meetup – April 2009 [w/ Expert Talk]
Posted: April 7th, 2009 | Author: vinnie | Filed under: Uncategorized | 1 Comment »
Tonight we’re marking a new addition to the meetup, an Expert Talk series geared to provide additional value and education to the group. I’ll be scheduling an Expert Talk into the meetup every 2-3 months. Tonight’s talk will be on the topic of Fundraising (which is picking back up). As always, there will be time for questions.
On Deck for tonight:
doodle.com – We have a visitor from Zurich, Switzerland in town who will be demoing one of the most popular online scheduling services. Schedule an event or come to a decision among friends with the simplicity of sharing a one-time link. [Myke Naef]
thirstypocket.com – Think craigslist for your iphone. Sell and buy items with a snap of a photo and the convince of automatically being placed on a map. [Tom Bleier]
uservoice.com – The fastest way to turn feedback into innovation. Improve your site or product with the bright ideas from your customers. UserVoice is currently powering both web startups and companies from the Fortune 500. [Richard White]
Expert Talk Series – Bill Hunt will speak on Fundraising. Bill has been a founder or senior executive in 5 start-ups, 4 of which were acquired, the top two for $180 million+ each.
