Event Recap: DC Twin Tech

Well I can only say “Wow!”.  For all of those who were not in the know about this event, it was thought up and put on by Peter Corbett of iStrategyLabs to bring together what some would label the “old school” and the “new media” communities of the DC area.

There was a lot of anticipation and it did not fail to deliver.  Peter did an amazing job of securing a great venue and gathering a lot of unique groups and people together.  I wish I could say I had video or pics to show you … I did take my Flip video to gather some interviews, but was having such a good time meeting and chatting with new folks an re connecing with old friends, I totally forgot about it.

There was such a wide variety of people, I was pretty amazed.  I saw everyone from Champ Mitchell, Chairman of Network Solutions to Sarah Lacy, author of “Once You’re Lucky, Twice You’re Good” to Craig Stoltz, author of a Time magazine Top 25 blog Web 2.Oh .. really? and everyone in between.

I was going through all the business cards I got and was amazed at the varied backgrounds of all the people.

There was some great coverage of the event by the local TechBisNow and also by Zack Goldfarb of the Washington Post.

This was the event of the summer so far and we hope it spawned great conversation and relationships that will carry over and produce some equally great working relationships between the two diverse ecosystems here in the area.
