What can I tell my guests about the program?
BizTechDay is the largest and most impactful business technology conference in the United States. Its mission is to connect, educate and inspire entrepreneurs. Technology happens fast…This is the ONE event of the year where entrepreneurs catch up on the latest technologies and practical business strategies.

It is a program created by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. It is the only conference that puts business first and technology second.

BizTechDay 2009 features an extraordinary lineup of both inspirational speakers and well-renown business experts. It will be held on October 22-23 in Silicon Valley and streamed live to tens of thousands of entrepreneurs via the internet worldwide. Throughout the day, we will hear from amazing thought leaders, influential business experts, social media mavericks from Virgin America, Comcast, Yelp, Google, Facebook, Elance and many other like-minded entrepreneurs and business owners.

How can I access the live program?
Via the Internet: We will be streaming our broadcast online at www.biztechday.com. It will be available free to anyone who has internet access. One drawback is the lower resolution associated with online streaming. Accessing the live program via the internet is not appropriate for larger public events that depend on large-screen projection. For smaller public or private events, you could project the image against a wall or set up several computers where people can watch the program.

For the best possible viewing experience, you’ll need the following:
• Flash v. 9 (or higher). Most people already have the Flash player installed in their web browser. Not sure? Check and download here
• Broadband Connection, DSL, or Cable, at least1.5Mb/s download (3.0Mb/s is preferable.)
• A computer that is less than 2 years old (Mac or PC)
• Maximum suggested screen size = 42″ LCD, 12 ft by 9 ft projection screen
• Good quality speakers if showing in a large room with an LCD or projector
Important: If you are organizing a larger event, you should consult with a local audio-video specialist. BizTechDay cannot provide guidance on the technical aspects of organizing local events.

Can I charge people for attending my Friends of BizTechDay event?
No. BizTechDay cannot be used as a commercial endeavor to make money for the local organizer or venue. The BizTechDay broadcast is intended to be freely available to everyone. But you may be able to underwrite the costs of your event through municipal funds, donations, and local sponsors.

Can BizTechDay pay for the AV equipment I need at my event?
No. All arrangements for venue set-up, screens, downlink, and other associated costs are the responsibility of the local organizer and/or venue. But you may be able to underwrite the costs of your event through municipal funds, donations, and local sponsors. Please remember that you should identify yourself and your Meetup part of “BizTechDay.”

Can my event become an official BizTechDay event?
No, the official BizTechDay events are limited to San Francisco/Silicon Valley. However, by hosting a BizTechDay, Meetup you’re a crucial part of this global movement.

Can I use the BizTechDay logo for my event?
No. But you can use the BizTechDay Meetup logo and artwork – available once you register – to brand and promote your event.

Can I invite local media to my event?
