I’m really looking forward to the TechCrunch / CrunchGear Meetup in Berlin this Wednesday, June 11. Organised with the excellent assistance of our local partner twidox, the event has been made possible by our fantastic sponsors, listed below.
A full 250 people are coming, and the event (announced back in May) is now completely full. Imedo.de has kindly offered to throw the networking event at their offices. So if you haven’t got a ticket now I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until we do another Berlin meetup, which may well be before the end of the year, judging by the enormously enthusiastic reaction to this one.
To keep up with the event live, There’ be a ‘live community’ on http://blog.twidox.com via Six Groups. If you upload your pictures and/ or videos to Sevenload or Flickr, please tag them with “tcberlin” and use the hashtag “#tcb” when twittering. To join the live stream and for your tweets to also show up, please go to http://blog.twidox.com and register for the community. When registering, state your twitter account and then your tweets will appear in the “live stream”.
We hope everyone has a great night. Peter Ha from CrunchGear and I (Mike Butcher) look forward to meeting all the startups and we’ll be doing some live coverage of our own…
