Startup Riot : Atlanta, Georgia
February 20, 2013
What is Startup Riot SHOW? It's one day where thirty startups present for 3 minutes each and then answering questions for 3 minutes. Audience members get to help pick the top three winners. Plus it's affordable to attend and we make sure only the right people get in the room (sorry, no non-sponsoring service providers). What's not to like?
The event will be preceded by Founder Fables on February 19th. We are proud to be a part of Tech & Startup Week in Atlanta!
