History

In Jan 2006 I spoke to the Austin City Council on bootstrapping. There I met Rosy Jalifi, who runs the Small Business Development Program for the City of Austin. Rosy suggested a 1-day workshop on bootstrapping, offered to the public. Thus the Bootstrap Bootcamp was born and I facilitated it twice in 2006 for SBDP. I also taught the Bootstrap Principles to 7 students at the Khabele School in the Fall of 2006. In the latter part of 2006, fellow bootstrapper, Josh Shipsey and I decided to collaborate on an online version. This is now offered with Josh's company, Communication Simulations at Bootstrap Bootcamp.

Current Bootstrap Collaborators
