How HowToWeb Ignited Bucharest And Central Europe
I recently hit Bucharest in Romania to experience the rising star event of the Central and Eastern European scene, HowToWeb. This annual conference is doing an amazing job of bringing CEE entrepreneurs together, and Bucharest is gradually emerging as one of the key tech hubs in the region. The reason? It's pretty simple - there is great engineering talent, plenty of it (there are 22 million Romanians) and it's affordable. I could of course name any other number of cities that fit this profile - Kiev, Ljubljana, Sofia, Warsaw and more - but at the moment HowToWeb is bringing many startups and entrepreneurs in from the region to network and party, and mashing them up with international speakers such as Mark Randall of Adobe, Michael Breidenbruecker, founder of Last.fm and RjDj and Pablos Holman of Intellectual Ventures Lab.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/tNUsKDnjIDc/
