Silicon Alley Beat: New York Tech & Startup Events (Feb 25 – March 1)

How about that Social Media week? I know I had fun, I was tweeting up a storm the whole week, love those #hashtags! This week has quite the potpourri of events, a smorgasbord of networking events, speakers series and hackathons. As for me, I’ll see you codeswappers at the Brooklyn Tech Meetup and the Startup Funeral.

Without further delay, I present my picks for the most interesting tech and startup events happening in NYC this week (February 25-March 1).

As always, if you want your event added, feel free to email me or tweet at me.
