Acquia is participating in another Launch Pad event, this time for the Enterprise 2.0 conference. For this Launch Pad event, technology companies were asked to submit a one-minute video pitch to be voted on by the Enterprise 2.0 community. There will be multiple rounds, with four companies eventually on stage at the Enterprise 2.0 conference to present and demonstrate in front of a live audience.

Web 2.0 Expo Comes to New York in 2008

As large as the crowd was that gathered at the inaugural Web 2.0 Expo last April in San Francisco, the majority were from the Bay Area and the West. In order to serve the thriving web community on the East coast, interwoven with the financial, advertising, and consulting industries headquartered in New York, we're building a vibrant event for the developers, designers, entrepreneurs, and other web professionals who'd like to learn and network with like minds in the Big Apple.

Dries Buytaert will participate in a panel discussion with web content thought leaders led by Geoffrey Bock of Gilbane Group.
