TECH Cocktail During DC Week Rocked – Event Pics & Wrap Up
June 18th, 2010 | Events,KikScore & KikReport,Social Media | 2 Comments »
With Digital Capital Week upon us, last night was a great time for the huge (and growing!) DC tech community to come together for Tech Cocktail. As with previous Tech Cocktail events, this event was billed as a time for us all to “connect, educate and amplify” the local tech signal all while having a few drinks. A number of startups also put on demos on the second floor of the party at Lux Lounge. The great thing about this Tech Cocktail compared to others as it took place right in the middle of the first ever DC Tech Week. DC Tech Week has been a week full of great tech related activities dealing with a whole range of issues from social media, government, future of media to a bunch of cool tech events, lectures even a 140Conference too. It was also cool to have the backdrop of the World Cup going on too.
Here some of the pictures from last night. The event got off to a great start and kept rolling. There just was not enough time to talk to everyone, but it was great to see so many friends and meet a bunch of new people too. I brought the KikScore force for our east coast team last night as our Colorado team will have to wait for the next one in Boulder.

There have been Tech Cocktail events now in Chicago, DC, Boston, Boulder, San Diego (look out Ron Burgundy) and Barcelona. So look out for one of these events coming to your city soon. You will not regret attending. Thanks to Frank Gruber, the founder of Tech Cocktail, for putting on last night’s event.
