Entrepreneur27: Starting a Start-Up

What are the similarities between Web 2.0, Ted Conference & Where 2.0?

1- expensive, $2800 for Web 2.0
2- exclusive, how often did you get to connect with the nerd celebrity who created some “ajax, web 2.0″ related product?
3- focus, what are you really getting out of these conferences that you can’t read about?
bonus- they appear when you search expensive technology conference in google

Why does it matter? Great question. Cause I wanted a conference that I would really attend. I am cheap, I want to meet other YOUNG entrepreneurs and I want it to be fun/interactive; not another lecture as I could go back to school for that.

So me and some friends created a conference for young people thats inexpensive, informative and a chance to connect with similar people. Entrepreneur27.org, the technology conference for anyone under 27. Free for students and only 10 bucks for non-students. Happening on Nov. 2nd at 5:30pm on the Stanford campus, everyone who wants to come can REGISTER HERE
