So we're doing it! Do you ha ve an idea for a startup and you're looking for founders who can get as excited about your idea as you are? Are you looking for an early stage startup to join - even if the compensation up front is sweat equity inst ead of salary? Then this event is for you. \;\n \;\nSend us your Idea \;\nIf you have an idea for a startup\, we encourage you to give use some hint of what it is (even if you need to be vague) so we can po st the info and help you generate some interest. Please use the form at this link and we'll read it\, maybe provide some feedback\, and get your idea posted online. (If you don't want to reveal anything about the ide a online\, at least consider talking about what skill sets you'd like to add to the team so readers will know whether or not there might be a fi t.) \;\n \;\nSee concepts others have already posted at this link. \;\n \;\nAgenda for Feb. 28 \;\nAfter some networking time\, w e'll have each idea person looking for a team give 2 or 3 minute elevato r pitch\, have each of them head to their own corner of the room\, and l et people circulate around to check out the startups that sound interest ing to them. \;\n \;\nIf we get a lot of ideas\, we might have to split this up over more than one event and feature a specific list of st artups at each one - we'll see how it goes. \;\n \;\nSo mark your calendar\, RSVP\, and start honing your idea. We hope to see you on Feb. 28! \;\n\n\nTags: startups\, otbc\n\nImported from: http://calagator .org/events/1250456684 URL:http://www.meetup.com/otbc-events/calendar/9689811/ SUMMARY:OTBC: Speed Dating for Startups LOCATION:OTBC [Old location\, do not use!]: 12725 Sw Millikan Way\, Suite 101\, Beaverton OR 97005 US SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090324T212347Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090330T131500 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090330T113000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090324T212347Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090327T162656Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250456876 DESCRIPTION:Entrepreneur Meetups >\; OTBC \;\n \;\nIn spite of th e difficult economy\, Ontier CEO Sebastian Rapport recently closed an in vestment round\, launched a product\, and added tech heavy-weights Paul Gulick and Les Fahey to the Ontier Board.
