Ignite Boulder 10 Wrap-up

Ignite Boulder just turned 10. That’s over 120 presentations, and we’re not even a teenager yet (unless you ask Andrew)! Ignite 10 was another wonderful night of enlightening presentations, even when they offered conflicting advice (be incredible vs be mediocre). Churchill, our esteemed local band of the evening was great – the highlight of the night for many. The crowd was awesome, with more friends of friends than ever before. That’s right – we’re not just for techie 20 something guys anymore. Want proof? A line for the ladies

Ignite Boulder 10 Review

Had a great time last night, just wanted to take a quick moment to thank everyone that came!  We had another record crowd at 875, which made that the largest Ignite the world has ever seen.  The Boulder community is amazingly supportive and dynamic, a real treat that we should not take for granted. Our speakers did an amazing job teaching us all something and inspiring us to do something a bit better, a bit bigger.  They had guts, they had nerdery, and we have to thank them for that. Ignite Boulder 11 will be June 24 at the historic and amazing Chautauqua Auditorium!

From Aliea: So, I’m just writing to you to tell you a little more about the non-profit that you’ve so graciously agreed to donate to, and my experiences with the therapy

Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers Foundation

The charity we’ve chosen to help for Ignite 10 is the Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers Foundation (we are supporting one more great charity for Ignite Boulder 10, more on that later). In 1991 a group of doctors and other caring individuals associated with the Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers discovered that doctors often used personal funds to help patients meet their financial needs. They decided to create a foundation that would have the mission of providing financial assistance for basic living necessities such as housing, food and utilities. The Rocky Mountain Cancer
