Lean Startup Pitfalls Uncovered Featuring Brett Durrett of IMVU
IMVU is the original Lean Startup. Eric Ries' techniques started IMVU on its path to hockey stick growth before unforeseen pitfalls slowed things down. Brett Durrett, VP of engineering at IMVU will reveal the details about happened and what it took to get things back on track.
Stay afterwards for drinks and get face time with Brett and other top startup founders.
For $25 you get top notch advice from Brett, fantastic networking with other founders , free food and FREE BEER!
In addition, we have a fantastic new venue. The event will be held at Kicklabs, a new incubator with a convenient SOMA location on Brannan near 2nd.
*You must purchase a ticket to get in the door. RSVPs from Meetup are NOT acceptable for entry.*

Rodney WitcherThe changing of the topic at the last minute was a little bit disappointing.
The change was slight but I personally feel I would have benefited more from a focus on companies in the small startup stage. I found the information discussed useful, just not focused on my desired area of discussion.
-
Jacob HeitlerI enjoyed talking with people, but I'd already heard the talk at the SLL conf, and it wasn't actually about the "start up" part of the IMVU story, which is what I was interested in.
-
Steve Goetz+1 guestNice presentation about the challenges and pivots required to grow revenue. Surprised it has taken $29M to get to $40M in revenue considering the extreme focus on customer development.
-
Francesco BaschieriThe presentation was great, though it was not the one mentioned in the title of the event. Instead it was more focused on company growth at a later stage.
-
Elina Razdobarina+1 guestGreat talk and presentations. Particularly enjoyed the Q&A session . Cool people. Fun!
