Chicago

Weaving The CEC

The last 12 months have been an exciting time in Chicago and the Weave team has had a front row view in 2011. The technology ecosystem is blooming and the number of young companies completing financing rounds, establishing traction and gaining recognition has risen significantly. 

A number of organizations and events have been a catalyst for change and made this progress visible to the wider world. One organization in particular has been driving the ecosystem forward. 

SocialDevCamp 2010 brings the Chicago Tech community together

 

Over the weekend we volunteered for and attended the Social Dev Camp Event at the IIT campus on the south side of Chicago. It was awesome. 300 plus developers, journalists, entrepreneurs, investors, not for profit and industry leaders assembled to share their experiences and learn from each other. It  was a packed 2 day schedule including presentations, unconference sessions, networking and a hackathon.
 
 
The speakers/panels were a mix of high profile executives such as Andrew Mason (Groupon), Ben Huh (The Cheezburger Network) and Chis Messina (Google) and the cream of Chicago based talent such as Pek Pongpaet, Alex Bratton, Chris Pautsch, Ravi Singh and Pete Simon.
