The meetup is for people who are interested in hearing how to scale a startup and meeting other people who are in the same boat. We'll try to have people talk about the way their site is currently setup, the way it evolved, and the next steps.

This group is for tech lovers and new startups  looking to learn from each other's experiences, ideas, execution, organization and progress during their exciting journey! Members will meet once a month in NYC and pitch their idea to the group and in return get some critical questions and/or constructive criticism from the rest of the members. Investors are also welcome as their advice would be invaluable! After the meeting we will choose a hangout and get to network more with one another. I look …

It's common knowledge that the startup world is one of the rare bastions of work-dog balance, a place where you can crank out all nighters while your pooch gets enough sleep for the two of you. Because many tech enthusiasts are firm believers that work and dog-owning doesn't need to be mutually exclusive, we should meet, talk about our awesome projects and equally awesome dogs. If you don't have a dog -- don't worry, you're still more than welcome!

This group is intended to become a hub for all today's technologies that make up the Internet as we know it. Here you are free to talk about front-end as well as back-end.

Once this group reaches 50 members, we will begin meeting biweekly in informal settings (usually over coffee, drink and/or …

Technical aspects will also occasionally be discussed, but attendees do not need to have a technical background. While hosted at Blo …

As a startup solo-preneur myself at http://facebook.com/learnosaurus I often run into a lot of things that can be solved by talking them out and bouncing ideas off others. I don't have an official advisory board, and it's often difficult to snag enough dedicated people to show up on a regular basis.   So this is my proposed solution. Come one, come all, founders and partners of startups in NYC that are education-based. We can act as our own "mutual" advisory board and share war-stories about leg …

Having created a few Angel & VC funded startups and then becoming a Co-Founder of a Silicon Valley VC firm that made investments in Seed/Early/Mid stage startups like DoubleClick, RealNetworks, NetRatings, Nuance, Citysearch and many others its now time to explore new opportunities. If you have a startup or are thinking of creating one and could benefit from someone who's been there and done that (16 IPO's and 32 M&A's) we should compare notes in a group environment or one-on-one.

After helping form the San Fransisco and Seattle "Settler's of Catan" leagues, where executives from VC backed technology startups would gather, network, and play "Settler's of Catan," I decided that since I'm a New Yorker now, I would do the same here. The purpose of the group is for executives from New York technology startups to get together, network, play Settler's, and see who will be the "Lord of all Catan." We did this very successfully in both San Fransisco and Seattle.  We were covered …

The mission of this meetup is for co-founders to meet, build teams and start iterating right away. This event is for technical co-founders only*. The format will be that of speed dating where you have ~4 minutes to speak with every other attendee. In that time you can discuss your skills and your vision as well as your ideas if you have them. Matches will be made and hopefully teams will be formed from these matches. *While many startups can begin with a combination of tech and business c …
