Events : TechTalks from Cebu and Beyond: The Business of Software Startups and the Challenges of Starting One Locally
Published: January 3, 2011, Posted by: Nicole Paterno

The discussions in this meetup will be limited to the business of software and IT, and most likely also be the global/online market, or anything web-based.

I'm sure there are others who have experienced doing other kinds of startups or market. Hopefully we'll hear from them during the meetup. :D

No need to be a programmer to attend, though interest and passion towards computing and Internet will come in handy.
