Conference founder Mike Macadaan (disclosure: a colleague) started Twiistup and quickly turned it into THE Los Angeles tech event.
few years ago I attended my first Twiistup, it was a very small and intimate event. Each event grew and grew, until Twiistup 5 got so big that we partied in a private hanger at Santa Monica Airport.
