Part 1: Take a tour, get the Switchyards’ vibe
Switchyards, the only space in the city solely dedicated to consumer startups, has always been focused on creating tailored opportunities for entrepreneurs. To help as many entrepreneurs as possible, the startup space recently announced its new hot desk membership option, offering office space on the basement level to entrepreneurs looking for temporary office space.
So before you hit up our favorite monthly B2C startup event, take a tour of Switchyards’ lower-level office space to see where you might make your new home.
Part 2: Stick around for the main event — The Consumer Show
Now that you’re here, hang out for Switchyards’ monthly pitch event, The Consumer Show, on September 6. The Twitteratti call it #theconsumershow because it’s only for startups that build products for consumers. Cool stuff from a recent Consumer Show: a video, a recap and photos.
Five startups will each present for five minutes. Then — to foster community support — each startup will spend a few minutes on two topics: what can the community do to help their startup the most, and what successes or insights can they give back to other consumer startups.
