Amina, BIC has been kind enough to promote Startup Grind Chicago, most recently featuring Jeff Hoffman and on January 15th, featuring Jason Fried. In early February, we are hosting a global event in Silicon Valley, Startup Grind 2013. Chapters Directors like me will be flying in from over 40 cities around the globe. Over a thousand startups will be in attendance. Guest speakers are a Who's Who in the tech startup community. In addition to all the hoopla, which I would love you to cover (I will post the event), we are also featuring Office Hours with premier investors for a select few startups. I would love to see startups and investors in Chicago participate. It will help to shine a brighter light on our great city. Here's some details:

Can you help? Please, please, please...

Amina, we just launched a new community oriented crowdfunding site, FunderHut (www.funderhut.com). Our website features a trademarked Community Wish List that allows community members to post, vote, and act on their wishes for the community. How can we get more exposure? Your input is greatly appreciated.
