Open English At Start-Up Weekend - Buenos Aires

DateThursday, November 17, 2011 at 8:30PM

I had the pleasure of speaking last Friday afternoon at the first installment of Start-Up Weekend Buenos Aires. The event was held at the offices of Microsoft Argentina and the audience was a motivated mix of entrepreneurs, investors and developers. Our VP of Engineering, Alfonso Perez, participated as a mentor and helped the different teams turn their raw ideas into early prototypes. Great initiative!
