DEMO-VentureBeat meetup in Boston Monday: Pitch your company!

Come join us at a meetup at Felt in downtown Boston Monday for drinks, and to hear some pitches from cool technology companies.
I’m bringing VentureBeat and DEMO to town, as part of tour of the country to find entrepreneurs with the most disruptive technologies (guys like Joshua Kerr, left, who took a baseball bat to the fax machine at the DEMO in Palm Springs last month, to demonstrate how his new smartphone application destroyed the fax machine). We’ll invite them to launch later this year at the DEMO conference in Silicon Valley.
Dan Primack, editor of PEHub, has agreed to co-host this meetup with us. We’re buying drinks for the first forty people who show up.
Come by if you’re an investor, an entrepreneur, or anyone else interested in innovation, and you want to connect with other folks in the community. We’ll go from 6-8pm. Register here.
We’re also inviting up to six companies to give a three-minute pitch about their current product plans. If you’re an entrepreneur and interested in pitching, sign up here, and we’ll let you know by the end of the day tomorrow (Friday) whether you’ve been selected.  You’ll get to pitch the audience of investors, entrepreneurs, DEMO alumni and other professionals in attendance.
With DEMO Spring only a week behind us, we’re already actively considering applications as we build the class of demonstrators for the Fall conference. Apply to launch here. Registration is open too, for attendees. We’re offering a bargain price of only $975 (about a third of the regular price) for people signing up by April 15.
