Grasshopper is taking over the United States! With our trip to LessConf this week and BarCamp Tour right around the corner, we have some exciting events coming up across the country.
In the next two weeks you can find us in San Jose for SMX West and Austin for SXSW. Check it out:
We’ve ignored the warnings about the insanity that may ensue and are packing our bags and heading south for the most epic startup event ever – LessConf.
What attracts us to LessConf you ask? Tweets like this. “You should attend if you like pudding, karate chops and lasers (in that order)”and this, “you may not bring fireworks to LessConf this year.“
As you can see, LessConf isn’t your average event. It’s recommended that you only attend if you “want to learn, grow, and challenge conventional thinking.” This is definitely our kind of event and something that we not only love to attend but we also love to support.

I attended The Successful You: Women’s Leadership Forum yesterday in Cambridge and sat in on the session “Boston. The Destination for Female Entrepreneurs”.
The panel featured four Boston-area women involved in the entrepreneurial community – Stephanie Kaplan, CEO of Her Campus Media, Jennifer Lum, Partner in Apricot Capital, Katie Rae, Managing Director of TechStars and Pam Reeve, Chair, The Commonwealth Institute. The session was excellent and each panelist really brought a unique perspective to the topic.
This week we have two really great events lined up. On Wednesday, we’ll be sponsoring and attending Drinks vs. Zombies, an event that we’re beyond excited about, especially because it’s all for a good cause. What does the Drinks vs. Zombies event entail you ask? Check out our post, Zombies? Entrepreneurs? Drinks? BREW?…What?, for all the gory details. Let’s just say this; we wouldn’t be sponsoring it if we didn’t love everything about it!

The Grasshopper team decided to get involved with another cool event happening in Boston. We tend to focus all our efforts on doing events during the summer (when there is seemingly a shortage), but this event we just absolutely could not resist. Trust me, if this was just “your typical networking event” we wouldn’t be involved.
