February 10, 2014: Lean Startup Methodology - Promises and Pitfalls

The Silicon Mountain Group, a network of technology professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to announce February’s topic: Lean Startup Methodology - Promises and Pitfalls.

Lean startup is a new approach being used by businesses that challenges the conventional approach to building companies and launching products. This point/counterpoint presentation will examine the Lean Startup Methodology, including where it originated, today's practices and what the future may hold.

Our guest speaker started programming for profit at age 14 and has built and sold two startups, including one to AT&T. He advises companies on technology stacks, product strategies/design and Agile development.

The meeting will be on Monday, February 10th, 6-8 pm at Pizza on the Hill, in Tahoe Donner at 11509 Northwoods Blvd., Truckee. A $5 fee includes pizza, salad, and soft drinks. Before and after the discussion, there will be time for networking with other technology professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee region.
