Next Startup Drinks Montreal: February 24, 2010
Raymond Luk and the gang in Montreal have decided to not sit on the side lines and do something to help with the relief efforts in Haiti. We think it’s a great initiative and so we’re putting on a sister event here in Waterloo to try and raise money to help those in need in that earthquake torn region. Here are the details:
We’re holding a meetup/Tweetup in Waterloo to raise funds for earthquake disaster relief in Haiti. All proceeds will be donated to the International Red Cross (http://www.icrc.org/).Tickets are free but we strongly encourage you to donate at least $10 at the door.
There will be a cash bar and we’re lining up door prizes and raffle prizes.
Whether you’re part of the Kitchener Waterloo tech community or not, please come on out and tell your friends. On Twitter use #haitikwtweetup.
Facebook event here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=260440014472&index=1
GuestListApp event here: http://guestlistapp.com/events/12648
If you or you company would like to donate an item to be raffled off or as a door prize, please contact us on twitter @tinyhippos or @confusement (Dan Silivestru) or through the wall on the Facebook Event.
Lets try and make a difference!
This is a little late coming, but I wanted to take a minute and recap the Waterloo event from Jan 4th.
We had a great turn out of almost 35 people. Met some great new people and had a chance to catch up with some of the regulars as well. The place was absolutely packed due to the Canada Vs. USA hockey game, but we made due
Here are a few pictures from the event: (Special thanks to @cuteGecko for bringing a camera!)
You’ve heard the news about the devastation and the need is enormous. We’re holding a meetup/Tweetup in Montreal to raise funds for earthquake disaster relief in Haiti. All proceeds will be donated to the International Red Cross (http://www.icrc.org/). Tickets are free but we strongly encourage you to donate at least $10 at the door.
Sign up here! http://haititweetup.eventbrite.com/
There will be a cash bar and a live DJ (tbd). We will also be holding a raffle for fabulous prizes (tbd).
Whether you’re part of the Montreal tech community or not, please come on out and tell your friends. On Twitter use #haititweetup and please tell your friends!
If you’re not in Montreal, I also encourage you to do the same thing in your town.
Happy New Year to all Startup Drinks organizers and attendees! We hope that everyone had a fun and safe Holiday Season and that you’re all ready to ring in the new year at the many Startup Drink events happening across this great country of ours!
Waterloo will be kicking off the new year with the first Startup Drinks event for 2010. We hope everyone can come out and raise a their glass to the new year.
The event kicks off today (Jan 5th, 2010) at McMullan’s in Waterloo, ON. All the details can be found on our Waterloo page.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again.
Startup Drinks Halifax will be held Monday, December 21nd, 2009 at the Loose Cannon Scottish public house. 5 to 7 pm.
All startup business folks, new media and other interested parties are welcome to attend. Holiday cheer in full effect.
Please join us!
Prairie Startup entrepreneurs, technologists and tech enthusiasts! It’s time to start your engines, brave the newly minted snow and start networking at your very own Startup Drinks. Thanks to Cam Linke (known to folks from his efforts at BarCamp and DemoCamp Edmonton) the first Startup Drinks in Edmonton will be held at The Hat (map) on December 16, 2009 from 5:30pm. Cam assures me that the swanky decor is a bit misleading – it’s still laid back and reasonably priced, which is right in line with the Startup Drinks CA philosophy.
Pass on this information to anyone you think might be interested in this event. As always, the more the merrier!
Keep an eye on the Startup Drinks Edmonton page for more details….
