Startup Chowdown

We love community at the Village and try to provide as many platforms for serendipitous interactions as we can. One of our favorites has been Free Lunch Fridays. Everyone in our community comes together for some great food provided by the Village and coveted hang out time with their fellow members. It is awesome.In fact, it has become so popular that family members, potential investors, friends, customers, and prospects started joining us as well...and we loved it! So last week, we decided that we should invite everyone! The more people, the more serendipitous interactions, right? Startup Chowdown was born. Friday lunches are now wide open to investors, startups, friends of startups, students- if you live in Atlanta and have some interest in startups or tech companies we want you to join us.Today was our first one and it couldn't have been better. We had well over 100 people for an amazing cookout on top of the sunny parking deck. Great weather, music, corn hole, and lots of interesting people having great conversations. It's the largest tech lunch in Atlanta and Startup Chowdown is just getting started!So of course you want to come, right? Here's what you need to know:

• Startup Chowdown happens every Friday at 12pm at Atlanta Tech Village
• Every member of the Village gets one free guest
• Children under 12 eat free
• Additional guests and non-members are $10. You can pay upon arrival OR help us out and preregister HERE.

We hope you put Startup Chowdown on your calendar for next Friday because you are invited!
