Start Up Fashion Police

Chris Franks read this article in Entrepreneur Magazine about how so many entrepreneurs are fascinated with the idea of striking out in their very own startup because they think it means they get to wear hoodies & flip flops everyday.  ERICA BELL AND KATIE FINNEGAN write

“Myths that come with striking it out on your own, Hoodie-jeans-flip-flops style. Delving into the start-up world means having to don an even wider array of attire choices. Since you're doing everything, you'll need to look a number of parts.”

Of course, Sandy Grason jumped right on this show idea!

Stop Pitching and Start Connecting

Recently, GNIP hosted the Big Boulder Conference in Boulder, Colorado and Sandy Grason got a behind-the-scenes look at what the conference was all about. In this video, Sandy talks with Foundry Group and Tech Stars co-founder, Brad Feld about what Big Boulder Conference means to entrepreneurial communities like Boulder and what YOU can do to foster this kind of support and excitement in your community too.

This invite only event brought together the top publishers, industry leaders and consumers of publicly-available social data to discuss trends, best practices and how this data is changing industries of all kinds.

Brad said the main event is really what happens around the event, beyond people just pitching each other their sh*%, the conversation gets to "how are we going to solve this problem".
