Help Students Learn How to Network!

Atlanta Tech Village
July 31, 2013  -  6pm - 8pm

Keynote Speaker:
Kyle Porter, President & Founder of SalesLoft

No Cost to Attend
One Night Only!

Year Up and Atlanta Tech Village are joining forces to create our biggest networking night to-date!

At Year Up our students learn the "nuts & bolts" of networking, but don't always have the opportunity to put it to practice in a large setting.

Come help students put their networking skills to the test.

Who Should Attend: Anyone who wants to volunteer their time to help our students practice their networking skills
What: Nibble on bites.  Mingle with Year Up students and alumni.  Help them put their networking skills to practice!
Why: Because someone taught you and this is your opportunity to pay it forward

About Atlanta Tech Village

The Atlanta Tech Village, established in 2012, is a community of innovation powered by a 103,000 square foot building. The ATV is designed to service technology and technology-related companies that have a unique set of needs in their quest to change the world. Physical space should provide much more than just a desk and a place to hang your hat -- it should bring the community together, promote serendipitous interactions, and be a powerful tool for recruiting the best talent. ATV is designed as a campus for cool people doing cool things.

Our mission is to support and inspire entrepreneurs and founding teams to achieve success through a community that promotes faster connections between talent, ideas and capital. Together, we will fuel Atlanta's rise to a top five tech startup center in the U.S.
