Startup Lehigh Valley [LVTech Radio‪]‬ Unknown

The 3rd season of LVTech Radio wraps up with the trial of a new format - and some of the technical glitches we're all used to (yeah, they'll be fixed in 2015). Somehow missing part of the 2nd hour (but don't worry @markkoberlein even the parts where your mic is off are safe).

Ever wanted to know how @LVTech started? @tjlytle kicks things off talking about that. @josh_miller brings his trademark style via phone lines (we almost have that figured out), and @spainb and @anthonydurante join in most of the fun.

We talk a bit about the top gifts you can make in a FabLab, along with all that's been going on at the FabLab.

@TechonomicMan joins to talk a bit about startups (some of which was lost) and - of course - the 3rd hour is the normal chaos @markkoberlein brings.

@anthonydurante and @TechonomicMan talk a bit about Startup Weekend, Global Entrepreneur Week, and other random startup related bits as they keep the secret guest, well, secret.

Then @RandyBitting talks about what it's like to exit from a startup, transition away from running the company, and what that's like for an entrepreneur.

But where's @anthonydurante? Some how @TechonomicMan manages with only the non-business ramblings of @tjlytle. But before things get too serious, @TechonomicMan talks a bit about the Ice Bucket Challenge.

Which segues (you be the judge about nicely) into a great show about marketing with @stanten from @TeamAltitude.

War metaphors abound, and there's some talk about Alaska, LL Bean, and - well - you'll hear it.

When @anthonydurante calls in sick, that leaves @TechonomicMan stranded with @tjlytle. Near chaos ensues, but - as always - they remember to turn off guests mic until talking about old operating systems and mobile games developed by a 5 year old (well, at least the UI).

Fortunately @ritachesterton joins, and the conversation takes a more professional turn. @TechonomicMan's view of accelerators is explored a bit, as well as the progress of @skafflapp.

And a lot of talk about dollar stores. So much value.

@TechonomicMan and @anthonydurante talk a bit about their immensely successful NBIA presentation (with much credit do to a haircut). Then segue into a discussion about keeping local students engaged in the local community.

There's some talk about internships, then they turn to Chris Kauzmann to talk about Lehigh's new accelerator.

At some point there's a vague announcement about a Startup Barracks.

@TechonomicMan and @anthonydurante talk a bit about their upcoming presentation at the NBIA conference in N'Orleans.

Then @PanzerLegal joins to talk about intellectual property law. No only does @PanzerLegal bring his own microphone (making @tjlytle a bit jealous), but he brings along a recent patent example.

After dissecting the Amazon example a bit, the conversation moves to contrasting patents with trade secrets, their value, and the recent change in law from 'invent first' to 'file first'.

The usually quite @tjlytle chimes in with a few odd scenarios, but in the end @anthonydurante brings things back on tack, and gets @PanzerLegal to give the top three intellectual property tips for entrepreneurs.
