This month we’ve also had some planning meetings for evolving 1Piazza towards the vision that has always been a part of it.  The mission statement has been worked on, and a plan of action is being drawn up.  More details later – contact us if you’d like to know more.

We’re also planning a fall workshop for startups, as mentioned in the June event.  Expect the event to be posted by early September.
