This Friday we’re co-hosting the San Francisco TechCrunch 5th birthday celebration along with SocialGold here at 501 Folsom Street, and we’re looking forward to hanging out with fellow TechCrunch readers.
This event is one of over 300 meetups taking place around the world in celebration of TechCrunch’s 5th anniversary, and we anticipate the San Francisco event will be one of the largest. A big thank you goes out to Rob Ross, who stepped up as the SF event organizer and reached out to us to provide a place to party – we can’t wait to have you in our office!
Update: Now with Sponsors!
A huge thank you to these companies for stepping up to help us make the event a success and supporting the community.
