Startup 101: January’s Refresh

by Kevin Lawver on January 5, 2012

Happy New Year! Refresh this month will be a doozy. Brady Cannon from TAG got us a speaker all the way from Atlanta! Marcus Crockett, the CEO of Squidbid is going to give a presentation called Startup 101: 10 Important Lessons for Startups. If you’re thinking of starting your own company or are in a startup, you should come check this one out.

We’re back in our normal location: ThincSavannah at 35 Barnard St (3rd floor) on Tuesday, 1/17 at 6PM. I hope to see you all there!

I’m also thinking of doing a Tech Book Trade-In this month too. I’ve got a bunch of geeky programming books I’m not using and don’t see myself needing anytime soon. It feels like an insult to the authors to let all this knowledge gather dust on the shelf, so I was thinking I could bring them to Refresh and you guys could help me find good homes for them all! What do you think?

I hope to see you all there!

Kevin and fellow Refreshers,

Marcus is ready to make the journey south and leave the horrible Atlanta traffic behind, for at least a day or two.

As Kevin mentioned, Marcus is the founder and CEO of Squidbid, a competitive purchasing platform. Squidbid is currently in beta with plans to launch a licensed product version early this year.

I’m looking forward to hearing some of the lessons he’s learned over the years. It should be great.
