On August 12th, the Bootup Entrepreneurial Society is hosting How to be Acquired by Microsoft with special guest Jon Gelsey, Director of Corporate Development at Microsoft.

  • What does Microsoft look for in a potential partner or acquisition target?
  • What kind of innovation or problems can startups address?
