Startup Spirits: Improving Your Startup One Drink At A Time!

Startup Spirits is a community-driven event dedicated to connecting tech entrepreneurs with information, opportunities and most importantly....Distilled Beverages, aka: Spirits!

Our Co-Organizer and Master of Whisky, Ari Shapiro, is one of 16 to have achieved the title Masters of Whisky in the United States. He educates bartenders, chefs, whisky enthusiasts (and those soon to be) on history, production, differences in style and how to appreciate all forms of whisky.

Frequency: The format of Startup Spirits is a monthly tasting exclusively for technology startup founders, execs and investors. The event supports the startup community by bringing them together in a relaxed and fun atmosphere where the free flow of ideas & whisky are encouraged.

Who Attends? Participants include founders and execs from more than 200 Seattle startup and early stage tech companies.

 

"May the pleasures of the evening bear the reflections of the morning!"
