Meet Our New Sponsor, BlackBerry! (And Join us Wednesday for a Special Event!)

Rolling along! As we enter our third month of NWCU goodness, we’re excited to announce BlackBerry as our new sponsor! They join Google & Pearson in helping make it possible for us to host some of the best produced Meetup groups in the city. 

When we started NWCU, we knew there were opportunities to create real, healthy relationships between sponsoring organizations and our member groups, but after actually talking with some of the people at these companies and learning more about the ways we can work together, the possibilities really started to gel.

BlackBerry’s got all sorts of great platforms and products that people can use to build cool things. Working together, we’ll be focusing on letting people know how to make use of those tools to build new stuff and grow their businesses.

And we’re not wasting any time…

Join us this Wednesday morning for a special event! 

BlackBerry is doing a national tour themed around using mobile technology to “do more with less.” The featured New York speaker will be Ramon Ray, who has been speaking and organizing for a long time. 

The event is for morning birds, running from 8:00am until 11:45am.

RSVP and learn more about that event here: http://u.nwc.co/fS1YjO

This is just a starting point. We’re hoping to do a lot more cool stuff with Blackberry, Google, Pearson, and a couple of other great partners soon. 

More announcements coming soon!
