We are just two weeks away from our September 29^th Web Innovators Group meeting and I wanted to announce our set of demonstrating companies.  The doors officially open at 6:30pm at the Grand Ballroom in the Cambridge Royal Sonesta, with the “Main Dish” presentations to the entire crowd starting at 7pm:

• Book of Odds – Pre-launch Sneak Preview – Amram Shapiro
• Epernicus – Eric Silberstein & Mikhail Shapiro
• BatchBlue Software (BatchBook) – Pamela O’Hara

Following those presentations, each of our “Side Dish” demonstrators will have an opportunity to give a quick 30-second overview of their service to the audience followed by a showcase of their company at tables spread throughout the periphery of the skyline suites room during the unstructured networking portion of the evening:

• Clickframes (by Beacon16) – Vineet Manohar
• BetterLesson – Alex Grodd
• Baydin – Alex Moore
• TheIdeaStartup.com – Matt Chepeleff and Ray Di Nizo
• Happn.in – Jay Boice
• Tripleseat Software – Jonathan Morse

All of the above companies were selected amongst dozens of applicants looking to participate in the program.  Unfortunately there was not space for other qualifying startups; if yours was not chosen, I’d encourage you to reapply for the next event in December.

And as a reminder, we also have a special breakout session at 8pm entitled, “An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Bootstrapping PR.”  It will feature entrepreneur and marketing/media executive Mike Troiano hosting a discussion with a media panel including Scott Kirsner of the Boston Globe, Wade Roush from Xconomy, Peter Kafka from AllThingsD, and Bob Brown of Network World.

With both a great set of presenters (including a pre-launch sneak preview) PLUS the optional breakout session, this September WebInno will be a special one.  Everyone who is interested in web and mobile innovation is invited to attend the free event.  Please RSVP (and find additional details) on the event page (http://webinno23.eventbrite.com/) if you plan to join us so we are able to print name tags and appropriately size the room.
