Going to Blackhat? join the “impromptu” onTour Tailgate

With more details to come soon, we launch the next Catalyst onTour Adventure on Tuesday. After a quick stop at Hershey Park, we’re heading through Ohio to pick up some books and then into KC for the weekend. We’ll arrive in Vegas on Monday.

A few of us have been kicking around pulling together an informal, low-key, low-stress gathering while in BH. Since we’re bringing the RV (the whole point of the onTour approach), this is a good time to work out the “onTour Tailgate” series. 

Since my Tuesday event got cancelled, I am looking at hosting people at our location on Tuesday, 4-7p. This allows time for BH and the evening parties - but also a chance to unwind and meet new people, make some friends, unwind. Depending on when people come in, I’d be happy to consider Wednesday or Thursday, too. (note: if you cannot make it Tuesday but want to meet/speak - shoot me a note and we’ll connect).

I know there are a lot of parties, events with booze and such. I see this as a chance to pull together, meet each other and have some time to kick back. There are no sponsors for the tailgate (though I wouldn’t refuse ‘em); instead, this is a self-supported event where everyone brings something and makes new friends. 

Details

Unless otherwise noted (or encouraged to go a different direction), plan for Tuesday 4pm. Here: http://www.oasislasvegasrvresort.com/

 

Companies Coming to Vegas

I am working on publishing a criteria list for pitches. I like learning about different solutions - but I want to make it easier to pitch me and explain the value. Look for something in the next 10 days. Meantime, if you’re going to be at BH and want to share your vision - shoot me a note and we’ll connect. I’ve already declared where I’m staying - and happy to meet anyone at the “rolling office.”
