I previously wrote a To-Do list for new entrepreneurs arriving in Boston. It included a bunch of folks to follow on twitter and on their blogs, events to go to, and companies to get familiar with.
I’d like to add a new to-do on the list, especially if you are a younger entrepreneur. Check out Dart Boston – a community of entrepreneurs 30 and under helping one another start their businesses. These guys have sprung up out of nowhere in recent months, and I’ve been really impressed by their level of activity and creativity. For example:
Pokin’ Holes: A weekly meetup and video show where one local entrepreneur presents their company and gets grilled by their peers. The show moves around Boston in an effort to engage the entrepreneur community in different areas. Tonight’s event is at Tufts.
Capitalize: A monthly show where one company pitches to a VC or angel investor. You get to see the pitch and feedback streamed live. This month, it was at Kepha Partners with Eric Hjerpe. In May, I’ll be on the show at Spark Capital.
Rule 53: A podcast that features a series of interviews about startup life, business, and tech.
I don’t know how these guys and gals have time for all this, but I’ve been very impressed and think it’s an excellent addition to the local tech scene.
