From: Caitlin McGrath <[email protected]> We wanted to let you know of a program coming up on May 21st in San Jose that students focused on technology and the law might be interested in. Projected to be the first floating city in international waters, the Blueseed project is dedicated to harvesting entrepreneurship by creating a place where the world’s top tech minds can collaborate. According to a report just published by Blueseed, almost 150 companies polled said they’d be interested in setting up shop. VentureBeat and The Huffington Post say the project is “gaining steam” and companies might flock to participate in what could prove to be a haven for tech innovation. Don’t miss the chance to hear from CEO Max Marty and others, find out what’s keeping the project afloat and what challenges may lay ahead.
We would be grateful if you could help us spread the word about the event by posting the event details on your website or forwarding it to interested contacts. We would, of course, be happy to offer faculty tickets at our discounted member price and student tickets are only $7.00. PLEASE EMAIL ME DIRECTLY TO RECEIVE THE COUPON CODE.
