First Ignite Reno event postponed to March 7

We’re going to go ahead and assume you’ve all had too much excitement in the new year:

• You’ve returned to your work or school routine
• The country has a new Commander in Chief
• You’re still playing with those new fancy gadgets and toys from the holidays

    And amidst all this excitement you just couldn’t find the time to put together a proposal for that 5 minute presentation you were dying to give at the first Ignite Reno Event.

    Unfortunately, due to the underwhelming number of proposals that have been submitted for our first event, we will be postponing the event. There is some silver lining in doing so:

    • You have time to put together your proposal for your 5 minutes of fame
    • The first Reno Ignite event will take place after the first-ever Nevada Interactive Media Summit

    Reno Ignite #1 will take place at 6pm on March 7, 2009 at Se7en on West in the West Street Market.

    Call for Entries: Ignite Reno #1

    Call for entries is now open for Ignite Reno #1.
