For anyone who really wants to see entrepreneurialism at work, and ways that folks in Utah are helping to facilitate it, there are a couple of upcoming events that are not to be missed:
Launchup #2 presents “Today’s Mama” and “Amber Alerts GPS”
A couple of really exciting companies will be showcased at this, the second Launchup event. I had the pleasure of getting a chance to meet with both of this companies last week, and I think we will all find ourselves intrigued and impressed. Also, there are some reat opportunities for both of these companies, and great opportunities for us to all get involved and help.
After all, that’s what Launchup is really all about. Come to see what cool stuff is going on in Utah, but also come to learn and to contribute. This is a team effort, not just a sales pitch.
Event details:
Date: Wednesday May 27th
Time: 6:30 p.m.

The second event to take note of is the Funding Universe Livepitch Event. I have to say, that as big a fan as I am of the speed pitch events that Brock and Funding Universe put on, I am an even bigger fan of the Live Pitch events. This allows you a chance to see other entrepreneurs pitch their ideas. But it also gives you a chance to see how investors react. Want to know what an investors thinks? Want to see what you need to be prepared for? Want to see cool ideas being pitched by local teams?
If so, don’t miss this:
When: Tuesday, June 9th 11:00 – 1:00
