Technically Philly and Start Philly to partner around content and more
by John Cappiello on February 22, 2010
The virtuous are the collaborative ones

After announcing their one-year birthday at Technically Philly and following a few relatively successful months starting here at Start Philly, our two organizations have decided to form a bit of a working relationship.
We met last week inside a Sansom Street restaurant and got familiar over drafts of Yards and comped whiskey. By the end of the night, we had an understanding.

Start Philly Twitter Lists: Startups, Entrepreneurs, VCs and more
by John Cappiello on November 7, 2009
With the advent of Twitter’s new “lists” feature, Start Philly will be maintaining a few lists that are probably of interest to anyone following along.
- http://twitter.com/startphilly/startups Mostly local startups twittering away.
- http://twitter.com/startphilly/entrepreneurs Entrepreneurs in the area talking about what they’re up to, or even just what music is helping to keep them motivated that day.
- http://twitter.com/startphilly/vc VCs that frequent the area or with vested interests here.
- http://twitter.com/startphilly/orgs Local entrepreneurial, innovative, incubating, or otherwise interesting organizations.
One of the benefits of Twitter lists is that you can follow entire lists themselves. We’ll be paying close attention to who is using Twitter in the area and be updating as necessary, so by following these lists, you’ll benefit from our work keeping you in the loop.

Welcome to Start Philly
by Max Sobol on October 13, 2009
Philadelphia is a spirited and vibrant city full of culture, nightlife, sports and fine dining. Besides being the home of the World Series champs and situated strategically between NYC and D.C., it boasts a booming tech community and an invigorated entrepreneurial drive. We love this city and the opportunity that it presents to its current and future startups.
Having been involved in and with local startups for more than a decade, we saw an opportunity to establish a regional online presence to highlight our thoughts, experiences and opinions. We are leaders, technologists, marketers, creative thinkers and above all, startup people. We get it done, no matter what, no matter when. We also value those who share our drive and ambition. This will be our/their forum.
Start Philly is about startups in and about Philadelphia. Getting them built, getting them staffed, getting them supported, getting them optimized, growing them and then some.
We look forward to your commentary and hope that you find Start Philly valuable while we continue to promote the entrepreneurial spirit of this great city.
