Posted on September 29, 2011 by Mike| Leave a comment

Fresh off the heels of our AlphaLab Information Night, we now have two new sets of office hours available for registration! The dates are Thursday, October 6th from 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM and Monday, October 17th from 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM each with 20 minute appointment slots. The 20 minutes can be used for you to share information about your company/product and/or ask questions about the AlphaLab application or program.

We’re using ohours.org for scheduling and you can find our profiles here:

We are using two profiles so that we can have members of our team meet with more than one prospective applicant simultaneously. We encourage you to follow both these profiles so you know when we announce new office hours.

If you have any questions, please contact us at application (at) alphalab [dot] org.

Upcoming Event: DevHouse Pittsburgh 5 at AlphaLab (Oct 2 at 6:00 PM)

Posted on September 30, 2008 by Mike| Leave a comment

AlphaLab will be hosting DevHouse Pittsburgh 5 starting at 6:00 PM on Thursday, October 2nd and lasting until midnight.

From the organizers of DevHouse Pittsburgh:

We’re about rapid development, ad-hoc collaboration, and cross pollination. Whether you’re a l33t hax0r, hardcore coder, or passionate designer, if you enjoy software and technology development, DevHouse Pittsburgh is for you.

DevHouse is not a marketing event. It’s a non-exclusive event intended for passionate and creative technical and design people that want to have some fun, learn new things, and meet new people.

Members of the AlphaLab team will be presenting a lightning talk about the AlphaLab program and the application process.

If you are a developer and are interesting in sharing, learning, and talking about technology in a open collaborative space… you should come down to the AlphaLab on Thursday!

Upcoming Event: Open Coffee Club at AlphaLab (Oct 1st at 9 AM)

Posted on September 29, 2008 by Mike| Leave a comment

This Wednesday, we’re hosting the Open Coffee Club of Pittsburgh at the AlphaLab offices at 2325 E. Carson in the Southside.

What is Open Coffee?

The main goal of Open Coffee is to make investment more transparent to entrepreneurs, and to move away from the formalized “pitch” to an open conversation. Investors can give entrepreneurs really valuable feedback, and this environment is meant to foster that in a pressure-free way.

The AlphaLab team will also be available to answer questions about our program and the open application cycle.

If you’re a entrepreneur this is a great event to have informal conversation, speak with others about your business, and learn about AlphaLab!

Open Coffee starts at 9 AM.  You can read more here (http://www.mypunchbowl.com/partypage/3b3e47b197ef0270)

Hope to see you there!

Applications!

Have a great idea in the software or web space?  Have a working version already?  Think you’re doing something innovative around gaming?   Interested in spending 20-weeks in a great, collaborative space interacting with advisors and experts with $25k to boot?

We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting submissions from prospective applicants for our next cycle!  The application is submitted online, and can be saved so that you can resume it at a later time.  We also provide a readable version of the application to review beforehand, so you know what to expect.

We also love people with lots of great ideas… so if you have more than one please submit it!  However, note that you have to create a separate ID and submit a separate application.

Applications will be reviewed as they come in, so we encourage you to apply sooner rather than later.  The application period closes on October 15th, and we’ll be conducting interviews with selected companies in late October.

Good luck!
