The Low Down on Sunday Night at Startup Weekend LA

We’re crazy excited about tonight. Teams are cranking hard right now and we’re seeing apps come to life and presentations take form.

The schedule for tonight looks like this (and note – we’re going to go with the flow, so don’t hold us to it).

*We’re going to be STREAMING LIVE. Big thanks to Jaymes Hines of Hines Media Group for making this happen for us.

6pm - Food and drinks. Mingle. Get everyone together. We’ll have some lighter food (we had a late lunch) and bring in some beer as well.

6:30pm - We’ll talk a bit about the awesome volunteers and sponsors who made this event happen.

6:40pm – Panel Discussion. We’re very lucky to have some great panelists joining us this evening. We’ll take some time and pick their brains about a few things. On the panel: Francisco Dao, Serena Ehrlich, John Dilts, Stan Tomsic, Sean Percival, and Mark Politi.

7:15pm – Presentations will begin. Each group (here’s the list) will have ~15 minutes to present. Our panelists will help us judge and we’ll pick a top idea. Remember, it’s all good fun!

Notes:

- We might have a few other people swing by. If we do, we’ll tweet and blog about it. Follow #lasw and also tune into the LIVE STREAM (URL to come).

- We have at least 2 groups working with the Twilio API. We’re pumped that they entered the competition this weekend. One of them should DEFINITELY win the prize (cough cough).

- Francisco Dao is with Twiistup. The winner tonight will be able to apply to the Twiistup Showoff for free! (normally $75)

- We had Wil Schroter speak to the group yesterday at lunch. What was meant to be a quick 15 minute talk turned into nearly an hour as the group asked tons of questions and a great conversation developed. Thanks to Wil for his insight, time, and willingness to be a resource.

- Jun Laoyza swung by yesterday and did some interviews. He’ll have that up on his site soon. Thanks Jun. Great to see you.

[we're probably forgetting things, but will update as needed]
