In 2013, Lean Startup adoption blossomed in Cincinnati; we have lots of stories that need to be shared.
We're adopting a new format at Cincinnati Lean Startup Circle that provides a great platform to share your experiences, and for others to learn from practical applications of the methodology.
Networking + presentation signup
Starting at 6pm, informal networking (30-45 min) - meet some people, and sign up to present (for anywhere between 2 and 20 minutes - content must be Lean Startup related). Be sure to pressure attendees into signing up to present :) No reasonable proposal will be turned down.
Presentations
This is an extremely supportive environment. Great practice at public speaking. The best way to learn something is to teach it. But keep an eye on the clock, we keep things moving.
The organizers are prepared to step up and do presentations if signups are light, but c'mon community — step up and share what you're doing!
More networking + conversation
If there's time left after the presentation, connect with some more people through 8pm.
Cincinnati Lean Startup Circle meets the second Thursdays at The Brandery (1411 Vine St).
