Thoughts on Southern California's high tech and venture capital industry

Twiistup: Applications Open

June 11, 2009

Most of the technology community in Los Angeles is familiar with the Twiistup events, which mixes startups, entrepreneurs, investors, and others in what has been a fashionable and casual environment — last time, in a private hangar in Santa Monica in “Blade Runner” style decor. Francisco Dao, the new producer of the event, tells me that applications are still open to apply for the next event, and that they’re looking for interesting and innovative startups to showcase at the event.

Twiistup

Twiistup is selecting 10 companies who present their firm at the event, which is transitioning into a two-day event at the Universal Hilton in Universal City.  The event is being held Thursday and Friday, July 30 and 31st. Judges this year are Brady Brim-DeForest of Tubefilter, Neil Patel, who co-founded Crazy Egg and KISSmetrics, Brian Solis of bub.blicio.us and FutureWorks PR, Andrew Warner of Mixergy, and Mark Suster, a VC at GRP Partners.
