If you think about it like a high ticket networking event or a business conference then it can be. If you show up and expect to get rich and famous by standing next to a table, then you'll be disappointed.

Dunno about that. If you work each day in any random coffee shop in SV -- well, maybe not random, but one of the popular ones -- you'll run into people working on some exciting tech. I don't think most of the country is like that.

  Something u can build in a coffee shop with your computer doesn't sound exciting enough to me. Maybe it was exciting 10 years ago, but building a website/app/service is commodity now, it is not special at all.

  > "...exciting tech" That's debatable. Here are some of the Startup Alley companies: - Stemless Co (buying weed) - Mycroft AI (another freaking voice assistant...with AI) - Topology Eyewear (custom glasses using 3D face models) - Reely (Sports hightlights...with AI) - WeTravel (disrupting the dead travel planner industry) - Teuko (lunchboxes and tech?) - Switchit (uh...business cards) - GamerLink (Facebook, but for gamers) https://techcrunch.com/event-info/disrupt-sf-2017/startup-alley/ https://techcrunch.com/event-info/disrupt-sf-2017/startup-al...
