Bonjour Paris et bienvenu!
Welcome to the This Week in Startups Paris Meetup blog. On July 20th Jason Calacanis has planed a special Meetup episode of TWiST targeted for the European startup scene. So it is my pleasure to invite the Parisian startup community to our Meetup in the offices of Lingueo.com.
The event is free, well, almost 
. What you have to do to take part:
- Register on our Eventbrite website.
- Entrance will be granted with your printed ticket and a bottle of wine and/or water and/or a pack of crackers. This way we won’t die of thirst and hunger. Nevertheless there will also be a little buffet for free.
- If you would like to pitch your startup, please send a small introduction who you are and what your startup does to twistparis[at]winklermedia.com or ping me on Twitter @TWiSTParis.
You would need to prepare two pitches in English, a three minute pitch for the local audience in Paris and a one minute pitch in case you will be the winner of the evening and hence have the chance to pitch Jason Calacanis live on This Week in Startups. The event itself will be bilingual, of course (French & English) but the pitches need to be in English only.
All pitches will be recorded and published on this blog. So even if you won’t be the winner of the evening your pitch won’t be lost. People who are interested in the startups which pitched that evening will be able to watch the recordings on this blog and get in contact with you = free promotion for you and your startup.
I will keep you updated but if you are interested in either pitching your startup, know someone in your network who might be interested or just come and have a nice evening with fellow entrepreneurs and do some networking your are more than welcome to join us!
à bientôt,
Kirsten Winkler
