There’s nothing quite like mixing business with beer! Ideas on Tap is a business networking event for Vancouver’s hi-tech community. Participants include business professionals, advertisers, social media marketers, bloggers, video game developers and anyone interested in drinking beer while listening to someone talk on a milk crate.
This free event will feature a competition where five contestants deliver a 60 second elevator pitch from a milk crate. The pitch could be about their company, a start-up idea, new technology, hiring, raising capital or what they had for lunch (that would be me if I get up there).
The audience will vote for their two favorite pitches and prizes will be awarded. What kind of prizes, I’m not really sure. Voting will be done by tapping beer glasses on tables or bars. Ideas on Tap will be held October 16 from 5pm to 7pm at the Yaletown Brewing Company, 1111 Mainland Street, Vancouver. See you there!
