MiniBar - London
Your Monthly Face To Face
You think about creating the next Last.fm, flickr, or Web 3.0 start up? You think London lacks opportunities to meet up and discuss those ideas? Then come to MiniBar.
MiniBar is a social evening in Shoreditch, which offers people a chance to snaffle some free beer while discussing mobile web, web applications, start ups, social networking, investment and general Web 2.0 mayhem & fandango.
There is usually a brilliant mix of around 250 web entrepreneurs, developers, tech investors and other geeks plus a few 5 min presentations on what's hot right now.
Check out OpenBusiness.cc for video coverage of MiniBar and other useful tech events and workshops.
