I was looking at Seattle 2.0’s Startup Index today and started reminiscing over all of the wonderful startups that are on the list (and the large number of tech companies not on the list) that have hosted, spoke at, or been involved with a Seattle Lunch 2.0 event.
Of course it’s great to see four of the top five as Alumns of Seattle Lunch 2.0 – I’d prefer to see everyone on the list with a chance to get involved with a Seattle Lunch 2.0 (presenting, hosting, sponsoring, demo’ing, just being a part of the community). I’m working hard on additional sources of funding (just partnered with Fenwick & West LLP to host/sponsor a series of events for those startups in the category of bootstrapping), I’m also talking to a few other folks for arrangements like this. Of course there is lots of room for hosting one yourself.
So if you are anywhere on this list (or not on the list – like my friends at Google, Microsoft, Whitepages, etc who have hosted) don’t hesitate to reach out about getting involved with an upcoming Seattle Lunch 2.0!!

I work at Robot Co-op and have been to some Lunch 2.0 events. Not sure if that counts.
I would love to put down Robot Co-op as having been part of Seattle Lunch
2.0!! Perhaps we could get you guys to host or present? I really like the
inspiration the team there gives to people looking at startups and think
it's an important part of the community…
What do you think – think we can move your name officially into the Alumn
category?
