SUMMARY:The Art of the Start 2.0 - Guy Kawasaki and Pitch at SAP
DESCRIPTION:[button id="" style="filled" class="" align="center" link="http://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-art-of-the-start-20-guy-kawasaki-tickets-18208825086" linkTarget="_blank" bgColor="accent1" hover_color="accent2" font="24" icon="" icon_placement="left" icon_color=""]REGISTER TODAY[/button]\n\nIn its original form\, The Art of the Start was the de-facto standard for learning how to start a company. The new version is 64 percent longer and features Guy’s latest insights and practical advice about social media\, crowdfunding\, cloud computing\, and many other topics.\nTo wit\, business plans are no longer necessary; social media has replaced PR and advertising as the key method of promotion; crowd funding is a viable alternative to investors; and the cloud makes basic infrastructure affordable for almost any new venture.\n\nWhether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur\, small-business owner\, intrapreneur\, or not-for-profit leader\, there’s an over-abundance of advice. The Art of the Start 2.0 solves that problem by distilling Guy’s decades of experience as one of the most hardworking and irreverent people in business.\n\nAs Guy likes to say\, “Entrepreneur is a state of mind\, not a job title.” This book will help you make your crazy ideas stick\, through an adventure that’s more art than science–the art of the start.\n\nProgram Details:\n\n3:00 - 5:00 Pitch at SAP (By Invitation Only)\n5:30 - 6:00 Registration and Networking\n6:00 - 6:45 Final Pitch\n6:50 - 7:00 Introductions\n7:00 - 8:00 Presenting Guy Kawasaki\n8:00 - 9:00 Book Signing\n\n\n\nAPPLY TO PITCH\n\nHere’s how it works:\n\nStep 1: Application\n\nApply and confirm that you have clicked through the SAP Startup Focus MNDA.\n\nStep 2: Await first round of vetting\n\nSelected startups will benefit from working with SAP solution architects\, alliance perks (for example AWS credits)\, VC connections\, SAP Startup Community and the SAP Startup Focus go-to-market team.
