Attended My First Boston Meetup
Last night I attended the Boston Web-Based Business Startup Group, an informal Meetup.com event. About 11 people showed up, and the format was a roundtable discussion. We each took 10 minutes to explain what we do and bounce questions off the group. It was both informative and a good reality check.
I attended the meetup with the two guys from Pandemic Labs, a viral marketing startup, whom I met them through Henry. They turned out to be quite a hit at the meetup due to everyone's curiosity about what they do and how it might help them.
With this event past me, there are numerous others that I plan on attending. At the meetup, Dale from Lead Gather informed me that The Web Innovators Group attracts a good crowd. The guys at Pandemic told me about the Massachusetts Innovation and Technology Exchange. MITX is a more formal organization with membership dues, but it sounds very promising. Lastly, I want to attend workshops and free counseling sessions offered by SCORE Boston.
