Tweetup: Lessons Learned / Open Mic -- in Cambridge

Tuesday, June 17, 2014

Everyone has them -- tales of their greatest triumphs and most embarrassing moments as a startup founder. Come share your triumphs and challenges at Startup Open Mike Night with people who have experienced similar lows and highs. Join us for networking, pizza, sharing your entrepreneurial experiences and learning from others.

Need inspiration?

Be prepared to speak on one of three topics inspired by music:

1. You can't always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need
2. I should have run from you
3. Don't play no game that I can't win

Or speak to all three in one story if it's epic.

The audience will vote for their favorites in these categories:

Most inspiring
Funniest
Most embarrassing
Best overall

So come swap stories, learn, and laugh with your fellow entrepreneurs.

Would you like to share your story? Please call (770) 580-ENET and leave a 2-minute voice mail briefly outlining your story. Include your name, company, email, and phone number. If selected to present, you will be notified shortly.
