Hang Out with Xconomy at DEMO’s Boston Scouting Party

The organizers of DEMO, the semiannual conference where tech startups do six-minute onstage demonstrations of their newest products, are coming to Boston next week to scout for stealth-mode innovators interested in launching their companies at DEMOfall 09, planned for September 21-23 in San Diego.

This Monday, come help Xconomy’s Bob Buderi and me welcome DEMO co-executive producers Chris Shipley and our friend Matt Marshall of VentureBeat fame for an evening of casual conversation and cocktails. The event will be at Vox Populi at 755 Boylston Street, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

You’ll have a chance to meet Chris and Matt (and Bob and me), find out what’s coming up at DEMOfall 09, talk up your product or concept, and connect with other entrepreneurs who have been through the DEMO experience.

Attendance is free but registration is required, here. According to Chris and Matt, the first 40 guests through the door will receive a drink ticket good for your favorite beer or wine.

Between 2007 and 2014, I was a staff editor for Xconomy in Boston and San Francisco. Since 2008 I've been writing a weekly opinion/review column called VOX: The Voice of Xperience. (From 2008 to 2013 the column was known as World Wide Wade.) I've been writing about science and technology professionally since 1994. Before joining Xconomy in 2007, I was a staff member at MIT’s Technology Review from 2001 to 2006, serving as senior editor, San Francisco bureau chief, and executive editor of TechnologyReview.com. Before that, I was the Boston bureau reporter for Science, managing editor of supercomputing publications at NASA Ames Research Center, and Web editor at e-book pioneer NuvoMedia. I have a B.A. in the history of science from Harvard College and a PhD in the history and social study of science and technology from MIT. I've published articles in Science, Technology Review, IEEE Spectrum, Encyclopaedia Brittanica, Technology and Culture, Alaska Airlines Magazine, and World Business, and I've been a guest of NPR, CNN, CNBC, NECN, WGBH and the PBS NewsHour. I'm a frequent conference participant and enjoy opportunities to moderate panel discussions and on-stage chats.
