DevTank January
Event Info
Description
Happy new year everyone! So it's time for the first DevTank of 2012. Here's what we have in store for you, returning to the offices of Forward in Camden.
Martin Buhr is the founder and developer of Loadzen.com, the rest of the time he works as the Creative Director of Technology at Soho-based agency Reading Room. He will be talking about the importance of load testing in building a startup and how Loadzen tackled the challenge of load testing in the cloud.
Jon Bradford is the Director of Springboard, The Startup Accelerator. He will be presenting a summary of what is predicted to happen in Tech in 2012, what London VCs are talking about and advise you on how to prepare for it; whether you are starting your own startup or have to grow yours, Jon will provide you with some clue to 'pivot' - to use the buzzy concept of Eric Ries Lean Startup book - in such a way that you take full opportunity of 2012!
**note**
Springboard London Accelerator is still open for applications until January 29th. The 13 week accelerator programme kicks off April 2012, this time in London. Smart teams working on internet/mobile technologies across any industry are welcome to apply here: http://spr.bo/Apply2012
All startups applying will receive this New Year's present.
Find us at www.springboard.com / @springboardnews for more programme details.
As always we will supply you with beer and pizza, with thanks to mindmatters and Wahanda respectively.
Look forward to seeing you there!
