Web Ascent Event Chicago

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

We already introduced you to Kristen Nicole, editor for the 606Tech blog. Kristen, who is also a writer for Mashable, has a passion for new technology, as well as a devotion to Chicago. Next week she shines a light on both with a new conference she’s producing, Web Ascent Event Chicago.

Kristen writes, “We’ve seen a lot events in Silicon Valley. But I recognize that there is a need to showcase startups in other places of the country, where people are interested in technology and want to see the latest and greatest in the Web 2.0 space. There are tons of tech communities all over the country, and we need to showcase these start-ups.”

We think that Web Ascent is a cool and important new event. We’re proud sponsors of it, and we encourage people to attend. If you’re in town for NXTcomm, consider heading to Union Park in downtown Chicago on Wednesday evening, June 20th, and get a look at Web 2.0 startups and hear from people who are evolving the Internet.
