Don McMillan at the BBQ Kickoff huge fun

Posted Saturday, October 4, 2:07PM

The kickoff BBQ to Entrepreneur Week was a big success again this year -- thanks to more than twice the people showing up than we were expecting. Good thing Lisa had enough food around, eh?

Don McMillan once again confirmed he's bloody hilarious. Even when his jokes tanked (he called them "entrepreneurial") he was pretty funny. I've seen his stuff before but his delivery keeps me laughing every time.

Don't forget to keep coming to Entrepreneur Week events this year... Communitech is really hitting its stride with good, strong events with some powerful relevance and value to our local entrepreneurs this year, so keep you're eyes on it. Can't wait to see my hero Jeff Taylor on Monday, the powerhouse strategic partnering session and of course, the guys on bootstrapping/financing on Thursday.

Don't forget to weigh in and fill out a ballot for the pitch competition. $1K for 1 minute is just about the best money for time spent you've ever earned, plus it's good practice for when you're up there for the really big deals...

Hope everybody got your "I exposed myself at Entrepreneur Week" boxers. They're going fast, sure to be some kind of bizarre collector's item someday... they're sorta see-through and in truth, that isn't the kind of 'live exposure' we were hoping for at Entrepreneur Week this year...
