DC Reminder: Social Matchbox DC

Just wanted to give everyone a quick reminder before we got to the weekend about a cool event taking place next Monday, January 28th at 6-8:30 PM.

The event is a great idea that plans to

bring together DC startup community members to discuss jobs, ideas and collaborative opportunities.  Participation is free.  Registration is required.  This event is not open to staffing agency representatives.

I am looking forward to going and getting a glimpse of the DC startups that are out there making things happen.
