Garage Technology Ventures presents Revenue Bootcamp, a conference for entrepreneurs to energize their strategies for generating revenue. While venture and angel investment appears harder and harder to get, bootstrapping and generating revenue are ideal solutions for young companies.

The conference covers maximizing traffic, generating leads, online advertising, non-traditional monetization strategies, and raising capital. Attendees will hear from industry experts and from entrepreneurs in the trenches, including Chris Anderson, author of Free: The Future of a Radical Price, Charlene Li, author of Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies, Mike Moritz of Sequoia Capital, and Garage’s own Guy Kawasaki.
