Time: 7:00pm
Event Page: Eventbrite
Location: Giordano Bros. 3108 16th St, SF, CA (note, this is a brand new Giordano Bros – NOT the one on Columbus Ave in North Beach!)
Contact: windmiller[at]gmail[dot]com
Please RSVP! 

The Scoop: On September 13th we had a fantastic kick-off for Bio+Tech at Giordano Bros in the Mission in SF! What a great turnout, and from eveyone I interacted with, I’d have to say that I was very impressed with the diversity of ideas, skill sets and people. Once again in October we’ll be teaming with our friends from Hackers and Founders to bring even more great people in to the mix! We hope you can make it – come, grab a beer and meet some fantastic new folks or even future collaborators!

As a note, many of you asked if there could be a medical and/or healhtcare slant to the meet up – of course! It’s all one big ecosystem – from consumer health, to new biopharma, to delivery models, and genomics – there’s tons of room for all.

We’ll be hosting this at the new Giordano Bros in the Mission – they have a shop in North Beach already, but this place is brand new!  Nothing like having an entrepreneur event actually hosted in a start-up!

Please RSVP here at Eventbrite so we know how many people to expect!  Thanks!

About Bio+Tech

Bio+Tech was created to do just that – meld folks with bio expertise with those on the tech side of the house.  The group was established to bring bio folks who are interested in tech in to the same space as tech folks interested in computational problems in biology.  San Francisco itself is a hub of the tech and the bio industries – that makes it a prime candidate to be in the middle of the bio+tech world!

After a long absence we’re glad to be starting back up again in conjunction with Hackers and Founders!  When Jonathan and I met a few months ago I was lamenting that Bio+Tech needed more tech folks, while he related that a core group of H&F folks were very interested in bio.  Jonathan and his wife Laura have done a tremendous job with H&F – I think it’s the start of a wonderful collaboration!
