TECH cocktail Boulder in partnership with DEMO

Rockies here we come! It feels great to announce TECH cocktail Boulder 1 today (RSVP here). This event has been in the works for a while. We know a lot of great people and great startups in the Boulder, Colorado area which is why we began to think of Boulder as a logical city to expand to.

TECH cocktail Boulder 1 is another big step forward for TECH cocktail for another reason besides the obvious one of expanding to a new area. TECH cocktail Boulder 1 will be the first event we are putting on in partnership with the DEMO conference. Yes, as in the DEMO that just happened last week near Palm Springs.

Aside from a little help from friends, family and the community, operating TECH cocktail to this point has been for the most part a two man show (Frank and I) in our free time (usually instead of sleeping). With demand rising for new TECH cocktail events around the country and with increased demand for our home event in Chicago, we were at odds as to how we could continue to carry out our TECH cocktail mission.

In comes DEMO. These guys and gals are professional event organizers who will be stepping in to help us with event logistics and sponsorship sales allowing us to further expand.

We are excited about this partnership and about debuting it for the first time in Boulder. The event details are as follows, please RSVP asap as this event may fill up quickly.

Oh, and if you can help us pay the bills via a sponsorship please e-mail me at eric [at] techcocktail [dot] com. The event will provide great exposure for your company and you’ll be able to help the Boulder technology community. What could be better than that?

    […] TECH cocktail Boulder has been a long time in the making. In fact, my friends at lijit have been nudging me for a while and I am glad they did because TECH cocktail Boulder was a blast. Everyone here has been so welcoming that I honestly wish I had another week or two to spend in Boulder to see all there is to see and to hang out with all the awesome folks I met. There is a thriving tech community here as is evidenced by all of the great web apps coming out of the Boulder area. […]
