We’re excited to announce that Strands, a people-powered discovery engine, has stepped up with our largest sponsorship so far of $3000, more than doubling our party funds!

Long time east coast tech supporter and lover of all things Philly, Drew Olanoff, recently began working with them as a community evanglist and came to us interested in working togther with Strands for our birthday party event.

Join us Saturday Night at IndyHall “StrandUp”!

In addition to participating in our party on Sunday night as a large-scale sponsor, Strands will be hosting a pre-party “StrandUp” event at IndyHall on Saturday night, from 6:30 to 7:30pm.

We’re expecting lots of people on Sunday Night, many of whom are around for the whole weekend.

After the first successful Strandup during Gomedex 8 in Seattle this past weekend, Drew is bringing the event to Philly as a mixer-style pre-party hangout. EVERYONE is invited! You don’t have to be an IndyHall member, you don’t even have to be a geek! Just come and hang out with the IndyHall/Philly crew. This is a great chance for our out-of-town guests to get acquainted. This is also a great chance to see IndyHall if you (somehow) haven’t yet!

There’s no strings attached. Only Strands! (sorry, I know that was bad).

We’ll bring the snacks (EPIC NOMS), all you need to do is bring your personality and interest in meeting a bunch of people and breaking out of the techie echo-chamber!

PLEASE RSVP on Upcoming, or Facebook.
