I went to the first (?) one of these back in 2005 at Harvard. I really, really wish there was one on the east coast to complement the SV one. It was a great experience and I think there are a ton of up-and-coming entrepreneurs fresh out of school (or still in it) in Boston and New York who would benefit from the experience.
- nrivadeneira 13y agoI wish there was one in NY too. I'm sure there are some enterprising enough among us that can make it happen.
- grandalf 13y agoI'll help.
- kyro 13y agoMe too. Let's get one started.
- carterschonwald 13y agothat would be cool. theres some really amazing folks doing tech in nyc yet manage to evade normal press. (and I think they prefer it that way :) )
- kyro 13y agoWell, Alexis Ohanian (a YC partner) lives here in Brooklyn. Maybe we can plead and twist his arm to help us put something similar together here? I'm not really impressed with the meetups we have here in NYC. NYTM (arguably the largest startup conference in NY) is underwhelming.

- ghc 13y agoThat looks awesome. Unfortunately at 9 I'll be teaching Lean 101 for Lean Startup Challenge nearby, or I'd come check it out! We really do have a lot of startup events in Boston, and I try to do my part to help, but nothing matches having a bunch of experienced, awesome people give talks in an auditorium. I still treasure my recordings of all the talks at the 2005 Startup School (especially Olin Shivers). I hope MIT records these talks and makes them all available for those of us who can't make it!
- mksm 13y agoI encourage you to check out MIT's Startup Bootcamp (http://startupbootcamp.mit.edu/ http://startupbootcamp.mit.edu/). It is not as big as Startup School, but still a great event
