Startup School Europe Warmup
Is anyone interested in a Startup School warmup "event" in London on July 25th?
Does anyone know a great location for such an event? Maybe an office of a London based startup? What a brilliant idea! I'm happy to host at the GrantTree offices! We're in the heart of Shoreditch. Can host about 100 people for drinks and will happily provide beers, wine and possibly pizza at no cost. Also, we have a pool table. Who is taking point for organising this? Edit: OK, I'll take point on this! Creating an eventbrite meetup as we speak (free of course). Here's the Eventbrite URL: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/startup-school-europe-warmup-... Could the OP or a mod please add this into the initial post? Also, please do register that you're coming, so that we can get an idea of numbers! Depending on numbers, we'll get Pizza, a beer barrel, etc. If just 20 people sign up we probably won't bother ;-) Update: 24 already... looking good, keep it coming :-) Update 2: 40! Update 3: 60! Thought I might as well submit it here since this thread has fallen off the page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7989159 Anyone going to this event from Krakow, Poland ? 100 People signed up! It's going to be awesome! I've added another 50 tickets. We'll figure out a way to fit more people - there's a courtyard, and we can put up a marquee if the weather's bad. Thanks for organizing swombat, looking forward to seeing everyone there! Awesome thank you! If you need help with anything just send me a message on twitter @odiestel Is it GrantTree venue confirmed? could you update on Evenbrite. Many thanks for organizing Yes, absolutely confirmed! sounds great, I'm just round the corner in the Tea building and can come after 6pm or so Excuse my naivety, but what will be the order of the evening? What happens at these things? This is a social before a day of talks and networking... so, mostly drinking and eating. And a lot of talking, of course. Is 23:00 the limit, or do you think it might go longer? I'm only arriving 21:30 in Stansted, but I'd really love to join this. Should have bought a different flight, sigh. Not a limit, but people do tend to leave as the night goes... depends how many people turn up I guess! Nabbed a ticket. See you there! Just signed up. Anyone other than me into B2B SaaS startups?! Would love to chat. Thanks for taking point on this Daniel, I'll see you there! Just grabbed a ticket. Thanks for taking this on Daniel! In! Brilliant idea, see you there! Sounds great, see you there! Great idea! See you there. Nice! Just signed up. I'm in! Done! count me in! :) If it's an evening thing, I'll be there. As for the venue, try hitting up http://shoreditchworks.com/villagehall - they are very generous with that space when it comes to user groups and other community related stuff. For those who didn't manage to grab a ticket there's also pre-event drinks being hosted by EF at their HQ in London Bridge. There will be some YC Alum there too. Signup URL: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/pre-startup-school-drinks-wit... If it's something like a casual visit to a pub, I'll bite. For the time being my party's having difficulty finding a place to stay though. Yes! Ideally in the evening. Also, happy to connect with people virtually before that. Keen to talk to anyone doing B2B SaaS. For anyone who misses out on registering for swombat's event, check out Silicon Drinkabout - a regular Friday night after-work drinks meetup that takes place in or around Shoreditch. I would love to be there for this!How about 26th? http://twitter.com/karambinu
http://mt.linkedin.com/in/stefanbuttigieg/ Could possibly use Google Campus I checked the event calendar for the google campus. However, it seems that there is an invite only launch party for a startup at July 25th. It would be awesome if you are able to organise a room on the google campus. Shit, I wish I had a visa for the UK. Can something similar be hosted within the Schengen countries like Berlin or Prague where its more central. I'll be in the city around 7 PM Friday, up for anything after that. https://twitter.com/martinmelin Is this a "food + drinks in evening" kind of warmup or "food + drinks + talks in the daytime" kind of warmup? I'm interested regardless. I'd love to do that, however, I'm only arriving at 21:30. I hope it's still going strong by the time I'm there. On the smaller side, I'd be interested in an evening pint down the pub if anyone is arriving the day before. I'd be interested if it's afternoon/evening and not a million miles away from a tube stop. I am interested as well but i depend on other people so cannot commit to anything unfortunately. I might be able to get there a day early, not sure. It will depend on a couple of factors. I am interested. On a related note, someone travelling from/via Brussels? Arriving in London City around 20:00. Definitely up for something like that! could be great... someone already booked vacations. Next time would be great to know it a bit more in advance (especially for the ones wishing to combine it with corporate jobs). Colour me interested. I'm arriving a day earlier anyway. Would love it. Anyone else from Norway coming? pm me. Should be arriving the day before. Count me in. I will be there if a space can be found I'll be interested as well. I'd be interested too. I'd be interested Definitely interested how many people can the main event have? definitely interested! count me in. Why not?
