Start-Up Alley: Sold Out

A Great Idea for New Ideas!

Start-Up Alley is back! If you are a new company with great ideas, this is the perfect place to develop relationships, get targeted feedback, and build awareness of your company. For a discounted participation fee of $600, you could be among 30 start-ups who will interact directly with our attendees on the exhibit hall floor. You could also be one of the companies selected to participate in the first ever EDUCAUSE Game Changers Business Competition (complete with generous prize packages from EDUCAUSE and Google), that could potentially catapult you to the top of the competition.

Don't miss this opportunity to get to know your target market and also make that lasting impression among the thousands of exhibit hall visitors to the EDUCAUSE Annual Conference 2012. 

Note: Start-up companies that choose to participate should focus on product and service feedback, as well as learning from the market rather than sales and promotion.
