I’m really excited about StartupDay 2011 coming up September 17th. We have amazing founders who are also known as being great speakers coming to teach pre-entrepreneurs and early stage entrepreneurs about building that first startup. While the content is geared toward early stage startuppers we also bring in serial entrepreneurs and investors to mentor — which means even if this isn’t your first time at the rodeo there will be something to learn and someone incredible to meet.
Here are just some of the speakers:
- Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology
- Sean Ellis, CEO of Catchfree and startup marketing expert
- Glenn Kelman, CEO of Redfin
- T.A. McCann, Founder/CEO of Gist (just acquired by RIM)
- Rand Fishkin, Co-founder/CEO of SEOMoz
- Micah Baldwin, Co-founder/CEO of Graphic.ly (his sixth startup)
- Megan Casey, Co-founder/CEO of Squidoo
- Brian Wong, Founder/CEO of Kiip and the youngest person to raise VC money
The last day to get the early-bird discount is this Friday, August 12th.
