2) To all our MN Supporters on this Journey:
Thank you for joining us as we spread the word at events across the Twin Cities!
a) Werk It Msp
After just going live, we were thrilled to be celebrated with 29 other social entrepreneurs across the Twin Cities for a runway event! Together, we can do so much more, and this event was a great reminder of our purpose: working hard to create value for our community of parents and sitters.
b) Entrepreneurship and Parenting at Minnebar
We had an incredible discussion with the tech community of parents at one of the largest tech (un)conferences in North America. We learned to keep perspective as much as we shared our experiences. Most of all, in true Sittereco spirit, it was a great reminder that we are not alone in our juggle struggle of parenthood, career ambitions, and life.
c) Beta.MN Sittereco Showcase With 11 Emerging Startups
Last week we shared Sittereco with startup supporters across the Twin Cities. With over 600 attendees at this science fair for startups, we realized the interest, excitement, and passion between parents, sitters, and community members!
d) “She Started It” Movie Screening and Panel of Women Tech Entrepreneurs
Join us tonight as we celebrate women entrepreneurs through a documentary film screening and panel discussion by female founders (including Sittereco’s founder) on women who have “started it” — the what, the why, and the how…
3) To all our National Supporters on this Journey:
Thank You for giving us reason and inspiration to make our way to you!
We hope you’ll a) continue to spread the word to those you parent and sitter friends you lean on and b) share any thoughts, ideas, and feedback you have as we pave our path as an early stage startup.
To all of you, communities are strengthened by sharing. Thank you so much for your partnership!
