Los Angeles Startup Culture - Twiistup 8

Since Twiistup began, (mt) has been a sponsor and attendee of the incredible Los Angeles-based startup event. 2011 was no different as we headed up to the Skirball Center earlier this month for Twiistup 8. We were looking forward to the inspirational talks from some of the esteemed entrepreneurs but also hoped get a few on video sharing their deepest secrets to startup success.

Not only did we end up sitting down with some of best startup founders in Los Angeles, we also had the chance to speak with a few of the most successful entrepreneurs we’ve met thus far. If you’re interested in the LA startup scene, or just wonder how to get your startup off the ground, these candid interviews are not to be missed.

The video covers some relevant topics on startups in LA including cultivating a fertile start up environment, attracting talent, defining successful exits and more… all interspersed with the music of the up and coming, indie-electro band Hyena, who rocked the Twiistup 8 party.
