TechCrunch is headed down south this summer and we’re starting our trip in Savannah, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Raleigh-Durham. We already have some great spots lined up but we definitely need your help finding a few more locations.
We begin by riding down to Savannah where we’ll see what the Coast is up to then on to Atlanta, Charlotte, and ending in Raleigh-Durham where we’ll have a great night planned of networking, chit-chats, and boozing.
The goal here is networking and connecting with the exciting projects happening in your cities. These mini-meetups are a great way to get noticed and to chat about what you’re working on and, in addition, get some advice on next steps. That said, we’ll have very limited time in each city so please drop jordan @ techcrunch.com a line if you’d like to meet with us. We’ll probably be holding office hours at a central location. Because of the vagaries of city travel, we won’t be able to come to your office, even if you ask nice.
If you’d like to help nailing down Atlanta and Charlotte, drop me a line as soon as possible at john @ techcrunch.com. Also note that we’ve changed the dates for the meetups to better work around vacation schedules.
Here, then are the dates and locations so far:
Savannah is happening on July 6th at the offices of The Creative Coast, 15 West York Street. It’s going to be a smaller crowd, I suspect, but considering we found Vinylmint at the Norfolk mini-meetup, I’m excited to see what Savannah has to offer. You can RSVP here.
Atlanta is happening on July 9. Location is still TBD so if you have any ideas, please drop us a line as soon as possible. You can RSVP here.
Raleigh-Durham is happening on July 10th at the Tyler’s Taproom in the American Tobacco Historic District. We will be taking over most of the restaurant and garden so roll on over. You can RSVP here.
Special thanks to the fellows at GBW Strategies who helped us organize the event. GBW Strategies is a new era, Triangle-based public relations and marketing firm serving clients such as Facebook and the Cherokee Challenge.
Charlotte is happening on July 11th. We are still looking for a location although we’ll finalize it by Monday. You can RSVP here.
