The girls are back, the girls in tech that is, and this time the boys are allowed to join in the fun. Robyn Cohen the Executive Managing Director of the LA Chapter of GIT is having an incubator event on Tuesday, February 24th. This event, which started with the San Francisco Chapter, is designed to highlight either a young, female entrepreneur and their company or a web company specifically focused on women.
The incubator event will feature Chris Elia founder of Closet Couture.com. Her start up was chosen by TechCrunch50 as one of the top 50 start ups of 2008. She will be talking about all the ins and outs of developing a start up business. How to use social media sites for marketing and PR purposes, and covering when its the right time to go for funding.

This event is free but unfortunately for you late comers the seats are all filled up. Lucky for a few of you though, Robyn likes us and has made three spaces available. The first three people to comment on this post will be put on the guest list. If your not able to come but still want to comment, feel free, just include that you can’t make the event. Start thinking about what you’re going to wear now, according to Chris it takes us an average of 29 minutes to figure it out. Go!
