We’re excited to say that tomorrow’s event at Nuba is sold-out! There will be 140 entrepreneurs, professionals, business leaders and students out so we anticipate an exciting mix of people that will make this event an excellent networking and learning opportunity. Here are some reminders on the event tomorrow and a quick note about our Twitter Challenge that we think you’ll find interesting:

Event Details

The event starts tomorrow (Thursday) at 6:00PM at Nuba Restaurant. Our speaker for the evening, Jon Bixby CEO and Co-Founder of Strangeloop Networks, will be speaking early on in the evening and Nuba will be serving up some excellent appetizers around that time so we encourage you to arrive early. It is important to note that we do not have additional capacity for guests who have not registered online and can not accept payments at the door to register them.

Nuba Restaurant is located at 207 West Hastings Street on the corner of Cambie Street and West Hastings (Link to Nuba Restaurant on Google Maps). We encourage you to enter on the Hastings side of the street to pick up your name tag.

Twitter Challenge

As a number of our guests will be Twittering at the event, we thought we would step things up a little and make it interesting with a gift card to the Apple Store. We will be using the hashtag #MomentumLeadership for the evening. We encourage everyone to take photos during the event of the venue, the speaker, of connections you make and friends you meet, whatever you like. Using the hashtag #MomentumLeadership (and make sure you call out @VEFMomentum in some of your tweets!) we want you to upload those pictures to Twitter using your favourite Twitter photo app (TwitPic, yFrog, etc.).

The next morning we’ll tally up who has the most photo tweets of the event on Twitter (using the #MomentumLeadership hashtag to track them down) and awarding the top 3 Twitterers with free tickets to the next event, with a $25 gift card to the Apple Store going to the first-place finisher. This will be announced on our Twitter stream the next day so please follow us on Twitter (@VEFMomentum) to find out if you won!

We look forward to seeing you at the event!
