Delete as corporate spam on an unremarkable event promoter & blatant attempt to WP:INHERIT notability from more notable entities:

events organization for startups, entrepreneurs, and technology enthusiasts,^[1] co-founded in 2006 by former Tribune Company and AOL employee Frank Gruber and early FeedBurner employee Eric Olson.^[2]^[3]

Delete This article sounds more like a corporate promotion rather than a real tech publication. Scorpion293 (talk) 22:58, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
