It's the end of March and we'll officially be ten days into spring! Let's party - HV Tech style! Presenting this evening will be an incredible array of talented technologists and futurists:

Michael Muyot (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelmuyot), President of CRD Analytics (http://www.crdanalytics.com/), a leading provider of sustainability investment analytics and co-founder of the Analyst Desk (http://www.analystdesk.com/), will give a talk on the Predictive Power of Analytics. Michael developed the SmartViewTM 360 algorithm, which powers sustainability indexes, rankings and investment products. He grew up right here in the Hudson Valley and serves as a Board Member of Rethink Local (http://www.rethinklocal.org/).

Michael D'Agostino (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelbdagostino) is the founder and CEO of TENTRR (https://www.tentrr.com/), a new startup that wants us all to be more in tents. :) Michael will demo his system and show us how TENTRR is building the largest network of privately-owned personal campsites and empowering individual landowners to create remarkable outdoor experiences through a unique online marketplace. TENTRR is launching in the Catskills currently and is seeking area landowners to become CAMPKEEPERS (https://www.tentrr.com/help/getting-started/becoming-a-campkeeper/) for fun and profit!

Matthew Stinchcomb (http://www.etsy.org/introducing/), Executive Director of Etsy.org (http://www.etsy.org/) will talk with us about how businesses can play a leadership role in communities to create a more inclusive, diverse and holistically successful local economy. Matt will introduce us to the Etsy.org (http://etsy.org/) entrepreneurs education program which will be bringing unique opportunities to special businesses here in the Hudson Valley in 2016.

Zephyr Teachout (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zephyr_Teachout) is an educator (https://www.fordham.edu/info/23186/zephyr_teachout), an author (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/19/books/review/zephyr-teachouts-corruption-in-america.html?_r=0), a champion (https://www.fightforthefuture.org/) for net neutrality, and a 2016 candidate to represent New York’s 19th congressional district in Washington! Zephyr will draw from her diverse experience in law, activism and digital media (she was also the Director of Internet Organizing for the 2004 Howard Dean presidential campaign) that has all helped her to formulate a vision for the future of the Mid-Hudson Valley which includes universal competitive broadband, open data, and a technology ecosystem that serves the people of our community in every possible way.

We will also be joined by special musical guests, Hudson Valley musical heroes, Jay Ungar and Molly Mason (http://jayandmolly.com/)and Mike & Ruthy (http://www.mikeandruthy.com/). This first family of Hudson Valley folk music will share a song or two including a recent commission to honor our beloved Catskill Mountains.

That's more meet than we've ever put into a meetup before and we're very excited to share all of it with you!

This meetup will fill up quickly so don't delay - reserve your spot today!

PARKING

If you haven't been to Uptown Kingston before then parking can be a bit tricky. We've put together a map that you can reference at Google Maps (https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zHUywO91Nhwo.kGvDPZl7nJa8&usp=sharing). Thanks to Shauna Keating (http://www.meetup.com/hvtech/members/190551983/) for her help with this!
