On June 11 (today), it will be exactly five years since Michael Arrington hit the ‘Publish’ button and started TechCrunch with his very first post.
So we’re celebrating this fifth anniversary with a world-wide series of meetups today. The event was already publicised on TechCrunch last month, but in case you didn’t notice, there is also a London meetup.
All of them were put on the new Meetup Everywhere platform that Scott Heiferman announced on stage at TechCrunch Disrupt to organize TechCrunch Meetups all around the world.
Globally, there will be over 352 meetups around the planet including, including New York City, San Francisco, London, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Seoul, Tel Aviv, Jakarta and Sophia.
And let’s not forget ad Dasma’, Kuwait, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and St. Petersburg, Russia.
Anyway, back to London. The meetup tonight will be from 7:00 PM
At:
The Camp,
70-74 City Road, London, EC1Y 2BJ
You can sign up here to the London meetup.
Please bring your own name badge sticker with a TechCrunch Europe logo on it. Be creative :-)
