» TechCocktail DC (8/27) Recap

On Thursday, August 27, 2009, BOALT co-sponsored TechCocktail in D.C. along with AOL and others.  BOALT’s main purpose was recruitment.  The event which was covered by TechCrunch, was a spectacular event hosted by Frank Gruber who presented 9 local D.C. startups.  Here’s a quick recap of the night.

1. BOALT ’s table and first visitor. (Forget your start up and come work for us!)

2. Yes, that’s right, we had frisbees! (A little game of ultimate?)

3. Liz Presson trying to recruit developers to come work with us on exciting projects! (Fake it, till you make it)

4. This is the back of my t-shirt. (Yes, i could have been a bit more creative)

5. Dan Dawley refusing to give somebody a frisbee unless she gave him her number. (She looks startled, don’t forget to tell me how that went Dan)

6. Liz is trying to explain that a frisbee has many uses and can double as a fan. (Thank goodness, I could use a cool down)

7. A BOALT frisbee doubling as a fan! (Sigh, relief)

8. When all else fails, order a bunch of pizza and use the frisbees as plates. (Yummy)

9. Meet and greet, with AOL’s AIM. I still like G-Chat better. (Wonder how hot it was in the AIM costume? Ahh the lovely summers in D.C.)

10. Innocent bystanders, my fiance Liddy Cooper and Melody Hildebrandt, Transcapitalist, founder and blogger.  (What’s all the commotion about?)

Great job Frank, we look foward to sponsoring the next TechCocktail that comes to D.C.
