Entrepreneurs Unpluggd Feb 8, 2011

Tim Jahn of Beyond the Pedway and Stella Fayman of FeeFighters wanted to put on a new kind of conference. “At some conferences, there are no actionable takeaways from the speakers,” said Fayman. We wanted to create an event that had solid, concrete takeaways for Entrepreneurs so that they can feel that they learned some things that they can use.” Located at The Greenhouse Theater in Chicago, each speaker on stage will have 15 minutes to speak and create what Jahn called, “an intimate hour of useful business advice from successful entrepreneurs.” “We really want this to show how passionate we are about Chicago,” said Fayman, “and we want to do our part to highlight the successful entrepreneurs that this city has produced and help showcase Chicago as a great place to start a company.” On the stage will be: Genevieve Thiers & Dan Ratner, Sitter City Mary Luangrath, Foiled Cupcakes Matt Maloney, co-founder GrubHub Ross Kimbarovsky, co-founder, crowdSPRING Tickets are on sale for $20 and are expected to sell out- Register here: Register (Ticket price includes delicious WowBao!)
