We’re super-excited to announce that our first speaker will be JOHN BIGGS of TechCrunch. John spoke on OpenReaktor #1 in August 2011 and the reception was amazing even though he said Polish people can’t do startups 😉
AGENDA:
- 19:30-20:10 John Biggs will talk about “the next big thing”.
John is the East Coast Editor of TechCrunch. Biggs has written for the New York Times, InSync, USA Weekend, Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, Money and a number of other outlets on technology and wristwatches. He is the former editor-in-chief of Gizmodo.com and lives in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. You can Tweet him here: http://twitter.com/johnbiggs and email him directly at [email protected].
- 20:15-21:00 Investors@OpenReaktor
