If you hang out at any of the local geek events: Mind Camp, Saturday House, Ignite, Startup Weekend, etc., you can’t help but notice that Seattle is brimming with geeks that have the Next Big WebApp. And with the prevalence of frameworks like Rails and Django, it’s getting easier and eaiser to get those ideas implemented and out into the world. But what about the next step? What happens if you want to turn your idea into a legitimate business – what paperwork do you need to fill out, how do you pitch to investors, etc. These are common and yet complex questions.
Rob Eickmann is putting together the Six Hour Startup Conference that promises to deal with all these issues and more. Speakers include Andy Sack, of Judy’s Book and Founder’s Co-op, Tony Wright from Rescue Time and Carolynn Duncan from FundingUniverse.com. You can also sign up at the event itself for an opportunity to pitch your idea, and get real feedback from the whole community.
The total cost for the event is $99, and if you register before Wednesday (the 21st), you’ll get a free copy of Randy Komisar’s classic business book The Monk and the Riddle.
