time to market is so important. To decrease the time to market, a
start-up must be able to develop their product or service in a
reasonable time and price. To do that, Sun Microsystem’s new program
for Start-Ups can be a good alternative. Why should we pay a lot for
the IT costs just at the very beginning?
Sun and Mashable.com have partnered to present “The Startup Review” on mashable.com
which is a daily feature/review of a new startup to help spread the
word on unique and emerging ideas throughout the community. www.mashable.com/startup-review-sponsored-sun-startup-essentials/
Sun is also hosting a free event called “Startup Camp” in San Francisco on May 4-5, 2008
to allow startups to participate in an un-conference networking event
to hear from some web 2.0 authorities, meet other startups and apply to
Sun’s Startup Essentials Program. The event also includes SpeedGeeking,
where startup founders can compete in the Best Startup Contest by
presenting a 5-minute pitch of their business to VC led groups of
peers. Confirmed guests include: Pete Cashmore, Jonathan Schwartz,
David Berlind, Om Malik, Matt Marshall etc. This event is a great way
for startups to network and discuss ideas. http://startupcamp.org/
