Join us for a moderated conversation and audience Q&A with Pinterest designer, Sahil Lavingia, who will be visiting Chicago from Silicon Valley. Pinterest is the third most-popular social medium after Twitter and Facebook. Lavingia, who helped to create the sizzling-hot virtual pinboard when he was only 18, is now focusing his talents onto another project. Venture firms just gave him $7 million to start his own company, Gumroad, an innovative social shopping and e-commerce startup. More about Sahil Lavingia: http://www.fastcompany.com/1835159/gumroad-pinterest-sahil-lavingia What do VCs look for when deciding who to fund? We'll also hear from Michael Sheng, of OCA Ventures. Join Chicago Venture Media at TechNexus for an evening of learning, inspiration, and networking. Food and beverages will be served.
