XLR8 pitches a new social network for entrepreneurs! (PM Session),

The Growth Alliance has been exploring the opportunity to test, and possibly be an early subscriber to, a new social network being developed to support entrepreneurial ecosystems. The website has an element that is like a dating site, helping innovators and entrepreneurs to connect with each other, find mentors, identify available resources, share lessons learned, etc. There is also a calendar feature that can make this a “one stop shop” for innovators and entrepreneurs to find out what’s going on across the region; and other features are in development. We would like to have as many people as possible join us for the company’s pitch and website demo, so we are offering an AM and PM session. 

After the XLR8 presentation we will see a perfect example of why this effort is so important.

Tech on Tap’s newest member, Ryan Loehrlein, is a Reitz High senior with his sights set on the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair next May. Ryan is a perfect example of the impact a mentor network will have on our community.

Ryan will be making a short pitch about his project at tonight’s event. Tech on Tap will be keeping our members informed about how they can help Ryan achieve his goal.

Please join us at Tin Man for some delicious pizza! 

Doors will open at 5:00,  FREE pizza comes out at 5:30 p.m. , Pitch begins at 6:00pm. 

Tin Man will offer a cash bar and you can order food from the menu before or after the pitch.
