Super Monday's - Super Start Up

This month we are running a really special event called SuperStartup. I think that this event would suit some of the people in the Digital City group. Would you be able to promote this event to your mailing lists? We are very happy to announce that David Cohen (CEO of TechStars) and Kevin Mann (Take Publishing) will be running an innovation seminar especially for the startup community!

David is a successful entrepreneur in his own right, helping to found several software and web technology companies which were subsequently sold. David is now the Executive Director of TechStars an acceleration programme based in Boulder, Colorado and Boston, Massachusetts and has helped 38 startup companies setup bringing capital, connections and real-world experience to provide a unique opportunity for early stage start-ups. Kevin Mann at Take Comics was one of those startups.

Take Comics was the first (and to date only) overseas team to be accepted on the TechStars programme – and is based in Teesside!! Kevin will help provide insight into what it is like to be on an acceleration programme and what he has got out of it. Finally, we will be running a competition at the event where two lucky people will win tickets to the Le Web conference on 8th & 9th of December in Paris!
