Events

Revenue Bootcamp On July 10, 2009, nearly 300 entrepreneurs got together at the Microsoft Conference Center in Mountain View, CA, to discuss strategies for increasing revenues at a one-day workshop: Revenue Bootcamp. The event was billed as a way for entrepreneurs to energize their sales and marketing efforts by getting inside tips and techniques from the most successful practioners and experts, including speakers from Google, Glam Media, Photobucket, Federated Media, Facebook, Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google, as well as Chris Anderson from Wired Magazine, Mike Moritz from Sequoia, Paul Graham from Y Combinator, and Guy Kawasaki from Garage Technology Ventures.

Judging by the feedback from the audience, they were not disappointed. Despite the general gloom from the macro economy, and some concerns expressed in an early panel that consumers expect everything to be free, there were several useful ideas that came out of the conference.

We want everyone to have the opportunity to learn from the speakers at the conference. Below are the links to videos of each of the sessions from Revenue Bootcamp.
