Events and Upcoming Member Celebrations:

The line was literally out the door at our last Built In Brews Oktoberfest hosted by Convercent. Founders, developers, technologists, and entrepreneurs got into the Oktoberfest spirit with German-style fare and brew thanks to the hospitality of AlchemyAPI and Convercent. The crowd was so energetic, Convercent kept the door open and extended the festivities for an extra hour.

Did you miss it? Not to worry, the next Built In Brews is being hosted by AlchemyAPI tonight and we have a special giveaway in the works to celebrate our engaged members!

We will be giving away two Microsoft Surface RT tablets to the two BICO members who invite the most entrepreneurs to join the community and presenting it to the lucky winner tonight at Built In Brews at AlchemyAPI.
