Startup2Startup is a group of Silicon Valley geeks, entrepreneurs, & investors dedicated to educating and helping the next generation of internet startups. We meet monthly over dinner to discuss relevant topics in technology & entrepreneurship, connect with new people & companies, and share our knowledge & experience.

Co-founders and current organizers for Startup2Startup are Dave McClure and Leonard Speiser, altho there are plenty of other ringleaders under our Big Tent. Special thanks to Katherine Barr, Saar Gur, David Hornik, Mike Speiser, and Microsoft for helping sponsor initial efforts in 2008 to get us rolling. Startup2Startup draws inspiration and liberal amounts of plagiarism from Round Zero, Silicon Forum, and numerous other previous & future Silicon Valley geek and entrepreneurial events.

The primary goals of Startup2Startup are:

Learn about startups & technology

Meet promising new geeks & entrepreneurs

Help the next generation of startups do better

Eat, drink, & have fun

At the very least, we plan to get the last one right.
