Twiistup 8 | Presented Live by TechZulu
TechZulu has been involved with Twiistup for quite some time now. We love startups, entrepreneurs and being able to bring you all the lastest in the startup community. Since we are the official media partner for Twiistup we have a jammed packed schedule that involves interviewing all the speakers, startups, entrepreneurs, behind the scenes and getting all that juicy startup knowledge and wisdom they have and passing it down to you. On top of that we will also be live streaming (thanks to our streaming sponsor RibbedTee) every talk and startup showoff presentation that will be taking place on Feb 10th.
What to expect from Twiistup 8 is subjects from how SEO and marketing is changing for startups (Rand Fishkin) to how startups should or shouldn’t use game mechanics (Amy Jo Kim) to the recent rise of the angels (Naval Ravikant).
