TechCrunch 50 Conference panel of experts

Mike Arrington and Jason Calacanis asked me again this year to participate on the TechCrunch 50 panel of experts. TechCrunch announced yesterday that Mark Cuban, Marc Benioff, and I will be on the panel. I am humbled…and honored to be mentioned with those guys. TechCrunch50

 

The complete list of “experts” is listed here. They include; Mark Andreessen, Marissa Mayer (Google), Jeff Weiner (formerly Yahoo), Chris DeWolfe (MySpace), Sheryl Sandberg (Facebook COO), Kevin Rose (Digg), and journalists Dan Farber and Om Malik.

 

TechCrunch 50 will be on September 8-10 in San Francisco. Companies can submit applications to participate here.

 

The panel of experts will sort through the hundreds of applications and narrow it down to 50 companies who will present at the conference. We will also judge the company presentations at the conference and select winners in various categories.

 

TechCrunch40 sold out quickly last year. Register here for TechCrunch 50.

About Don Dodge

I have been in the software business for more than 20 years. I started my software career with Digital Equipment Corp, aka DEC, in the database group. I worked with 5 software start-ups over the next 12 years. Forte Software was the first multiplatform object oriented development environment. AltaVista was the first search engine on the web. Napster was the first P2P file sharing network. Bowstreet was the first web services development environment. Groove Networks was the first secure P2P collaboration platform. Now I am at Microsoft...the biggest start-up in the world... working with VC's and start-ups in the greater Boston area. The goal is to help VC's and start-ups be successful with Microsoft, and together, provide great products for our customers.
