This calls for your immediate attention please. Microsoft's BizSpark program will be putting on a great show this coming Monday, Jan. 11th. WebStudio13 and NY Entrepreneurs Business Network will partner up to promote this event. You can check out the RSVPs from NYEBN (currently already 68 RSVPed).


The event is free for our members who are interested in learning how to use technology to develop a viable business plan and the ins and outs of tech startups. Please RSVP now if you are interested! There will be a $10 charge that applies for people not on the RSVP list.


We will give away a XBOX 360 Elite as the raffle prize (confirmed), and snacks are always available. Please bring your business cards if you want to enter to win the prize. Here how it works:


Microsoft gives software and support basically for free, a value of thousands of $$$$! Microsoft(r) BizSpark(tm) is a global program designed to help accelerate the success of early stage startups by providing key resources when they need it the most.
