The 13th incarnation of MinneDemo, Minnesota’s longest running and highest profile technology demo event, was held last month in downtown Minneapolis. An estimated crowd of 500+ Minnesota tech enthusiasts gathered at the Jeune Lune to mix, mingle, and witness 7 unique product demo’s.
Thanks to video production partner Ech03, the presentations were captured, archived, and shared:

Short on the snake oil and long on adult beverages (usually), participants and audience members mingle with a lively and sampling of Minnesota’s diverse technology community. It’s a legitimate buzz you won’t catch anywhere else around town.
“We like to think that geeks and those interested in what they are doing (i.e., investors, media organizations, etc) will enjoy an event centered on seeing what the local scene is up to and networking before, during, and afterward with food and drinks. It’s an energizing and informative evening,” — MinneStar.
MinneDemo is a ‘geek show and tell’ where local presenters have seven (power point free) minutes to demonstrate their real, working technology products.
Produced by Minne*, the event is Minnesota’s largest and longest running demo experience. Dozens of companies and products have come through MinneDemo over the years; many have tasted success, others not so much.
For those who didn’t catch a ticket, we’ll have a livestream available right here on the homepage starting around 6 when these nine technologies are scheduled to demo in front of a live audience 500 strong:
Minne* announced earlier today the original MinneDemo experience is coming back for one more pass before we close the books on 2011.
The events coordinators are tentatively lining-up this fall scene for 6pm on October 6th or 7th, likely at St.Thomas again.
“We’re agile,” remarked catalyst Ben Edwards when pressed for the specifics.
For those unfamiliar, the event is a ‘geek show and tell’ where ten presenters have seven power point-free minutes to demonstrate their real, working technology products made in Minnesota. The application call was made earlier today seeking those interested in a chance to share their projects in front of an audience of hundreds.
Whatever the motivation — to learn, network, hire, pitch, find inspiration or quench curiosity — over 1,000 Minnesota technology, design and startup enthusiasts passed through the doors of Best Buy HQ over a a 12 hour window yesterday.
Heralded as the largest BarCamp in the US, the latest production of MinneBar (6th to date) was easily the best yet in terms of participation, session breadth / quality, reach and energy. Guided by Minne* catalysts Ben Edwards, Luke Francl and Adrienne Pierce, the unconference was clearly a success on many levels; the message is clear: Minnesota tech has arrived.
