StartupDay 2010 is fast approaching with great speakers you rarely see in Seattle, such as co-founders of LinkedIn, Posterous, Twilio and SlideShare. At StartupDay 2010 entrepreneurs will be sharing their secrets to success in a step-by-step format that takes you from picking an idea to exit strategies and everything in between — all in a one-day all-inclusive conference.
But to get the best price on StartupDay 2010, you have to register now. Early bird prices end next Friday, August 20th. We also have just a few tickets left for people who want priority registration for our popular advisory room. In the advisory room you can have one-on-one meetings with attorneys, marketing specialists, angel investors, VCs, experienced entrepreneurs and more.
StartupDay will be Saturday, September 25th at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue (just 15 minutes from downtown Seattle). We believe the most inspiring speakers are people who’ve been there and done that. In that spirit all of our speakers have helped found or build companies including:
Konstantin Guericke, Co-Founder of LinkedIn
Garry Tan, Co-Founder of Posterous
Jeff Lawson, Co-Founder and CEO of Twilio
Rashmi Sinha, Co-Founder and CEO of SlideShare
Jan Mikosovsky, Co-Founder and VP of User Experience of Cozi
Dave McClure, Founder, Investor and Startup Advisor
Hadi Partovi, Co-Founder of iLike
Vivek Bhaskran, Founder and CEO of Survey Analytics
Tony Wright, Founder of RescueTime
Monica Harrington, Chief Marketing Officer at Intersect, ex-Picnik
Keith Smith, Co-Founder and CEO of BigDoor Media
Todd Hooper, Co-Founder of Napera Networks
Ben Elowitz, Founder and CEO of WetPaint, ex-BlueNile
And more!
StartupDay 2010 is the only conference in the U.S. that gives you the tools to help you build a successful startup from the ground up. If you want to be a better entrepreneur today, someday, or just want to be part of an entrepreneurial team, you won’t want to miss it!
This is going to be a great event. Save your spot at the early-bird rate before it’s too late:
