Ask HN: How was the Seattle YC meetup?
Curious to know how it went, format, topics discussed, people you met, etc...
- Mongoose 17y agoI thought it was great. The format was very ad hoc, with people just standing around and talking. Definitely one of the better networking events I've been to. I talked to a number of YC alums and local entrepreneurs, got good feedback on a few startup ideas, and some advice on grad school. Not to mention free beer. I'll definitely have to start going to more startup/hacker events here in Seattle.
- dmnd 17y agoIt was very worthwhile for me. The feedback I got on startup ideas was motivating. It'd be great if others that attended could post here as well, if only to help me remember all the names!
- dacort 17y agoFrom Tony Wright, a YC alum: "Probably over 100 people came to the YC meetup in Seattle. Crazy success. Note to self: Hackers suck at RSVP'ing." http://twitter.com/webwright/status/9666575618 http://twitter.com/webwright/status/9666575618 I couldn't make it, unfortunately.
