A little short notice but definitely an event to make if you can. Next Wednesday, October 27, 2010, Bootstrap Maryland will be holding a conference on the idea of “Getting to Plan B”. They’ve offered Startup Baltimore a couple free tickets to the event which we’ll be distributing through a contest below. They’ve also offered us 20% off the ticket price for anyone that registers from our site.
Event Description
At Bootstrap Maryland’s fourth big event, attendees will be learning to accept that their first big idea may not be the right one, and instead talk about how to get to that right idea and right business model. They want you to be ready for success, to know what to look for, to shift path – how to get to plan B.
Expect a crowd of entrepreneurs with a passion for technology and our region. Don’t expect lectures. You will learn from really sharp people who will help you to launch the next big thing.
The panelists are absolute rockstars: Aaron Batalion and Hooman Radfar are founders of DC’s two hottest startups, LivingSocial and ClearSpring. Tawheed Kader has had some major exits and now manages several startups, and he’s coming down from Manhattan to lend some perspective on how to get started. Paul Singh and my good friend Jared Goralnick, both who have had exits and run startups, will round things out.
