Since our first Office Hours event in Palo Alto last fall, First Round Capital has hosted similar events in Vancouver, New York City, Austin and Philadelphia. We’ve met terrific entrepreneurs at each one. The energy and enthusiasm is always inspiring.

We never know what might happen at Office Hours. Before the first one, headlines about Wall Street’s tumble were dominating the news cycle. But more than 50 entrepreneurs came to the University Café and lit it up. In January we held Office Hours in Vancouver. Chris Fralic and I took pitches outside Agro Café while we tried to keep warm in our ski parkas. The next Office Hours was in New York and was later featured in Businessweek. A few days later we were in Austin for SXSW and met with folks at the Rio Grande. Yesterday, I had a follow-up meeting with one of the entrepreneurs whom I first met in Texas. And in Philadelphia in late May, one entrepreneur showed up at Office Hours still wearing the gown from his UPenn graduation earlier in the day. Great stuff.

We’re finally bringing Office Hours back to the Bay Area. For the first time the entire First Round team will be there. And, in another first,  we’re finally hosting an Office Hours in our office. Who knows what other great things might happen?
