    Do you have your ticket to the May 10th event?  This year's program features a veritable who's who of Boise's entrepreneurial scene with Ryan Woodings, Faisal Shah, Jeff Russell, Noah Bryan, J Glerum, Paul Carew, Mike Francis, Wyatt Werner, and Russ Stoddard- to name a few.  Add in the expertise of Nancy Napier, Jana Straubhar, Jaime Cooper, Don Bush, Alisa Bondurant, Steve Hatten and Kate Wallace among others and you quickly realize that you want to be where the cool kids are on May 10th.  That's right, at the Boise Centre for IdaVation 2012!

    If that's not enough to convince you, the Keynote is Daymond John, fashion designer, creator of FUBU, branding and marketing expert and Shark.  This alone is worth the price of admission! And did we mention that Girls in Tech Boise members can register at the Kickstand member price?  That's right!  Simply select the member price ($99 + fees) and you too can be inspired to think different and act now.

    C'mon we need you!  We know that there are entrepreneurial ideas out there just waiting to find the right time to make themselves known.  The time is now.  Be a cool kid.

    Think different, act now!  See you at IdaVation on Thursday.
