Our two sponsored events with Sun Microsystems / Startup Camp and The Ladders were a huge success. Over 275 people showed up for each event to enjoy food, an open bar, presentations, and great informal networking.
October’s Lunch 2.0 event, the first in New York City, was both sponsored and hosted by The Ladders. Almost 200 people came out for free Chinese food and networking at The Ladders’ office downtown. It was a great turnout for an afternoon event, and we are planning many more Lunch 2.0 events, as well as more events with Mobile Monday and other organizations.

The Ladders opened their office to over 150 guests for the first official Lunch 2.0 in New York City. The lunch, which lasted for an hour and a half, included an introduction from the company’s CEO, Chinese food, and a lot of informal networking. Given out were shirts (with The Ladders’s logo and Lunch 2.0 NYC on the reverse side), branded takeout boxes and chopsticks. The event was reviewed by numerous online publications, including CenterNetworks and CNet/News.com. The new few Lunch 2.0 events will be announced very soon.
Next, The Ladders are sponsoring this month’s Web 2.0 Meetup at Slate Plus (54 West 21st Street). The event, which is being held on Monday, October 22nd (from 6:30-9pm), will feature Jason Rudolph, an author and Principal at Relevance. Mr. Rudolph will talk about current industry trends and Grails, and will host a Q&A session afterwards. There will also be free food and (drumroll, please) an OPEN BAR! Of course, this is a free event and everyone is welcome to attend, including those attending Sun Microsystem’s Startup Camp!
