Startup founders hanging out with other founders… that’s what Winter Camp is all about and this weekend’s cold did not deter about a dozen founders from gathering around a campfire to share experience, fellowship and a cup of cheer.
Caught Schmoozing are:
- Andrew Ottoson, Disruptel; Alex Quinn, Disruptel founder
- Jessica Burns, Amuse-Me founder; Doug Wulff, TimeBolt founder; Danny Mullan, Delegate founder
- Ali Jorani, GriffinLabs founder; Matt Ruzicka, Evolvable founder
- Ally McClure, BioRankings founder; Mark Manera, The Trucking Fitness Company founder
- Chris Marshall, Verified Backups founder; Doug Wulff, TimeBolt founder
- Marc Bernstein, Balto founder; David Weaver, ITEN mentor
- Edwin Williams, ZenHammer founder (and lemon cake aficionado) 😀
