Microsoft helping startups?

Via Don Dodge: Microsoft helping startups

I wrote a blog a while ago "How to Partner with Microsoft" that explains many of the programs and resources available for free, and links to sign up. Here are just a few of the programs;

Get free software and support. The Empower Program for ISVs helps new software companies get software, consulting, and MSDN subscriptions for the low price of just $375. The software alone is worth over $10,000.

Join the ISV community. Microsoft has a special ISV Zone for software companies. Find partners, get leads, get beta software, and get involved in the community.

Microsoft Startup Zone. If you are a startup you should visit the Microsoft StartupZone. The StartupZone is managed by the Emerging Business Team which is focused on helping startups build a relationship with Microsoft.

Startups, venture, hiring, tech, geeks, & other smarts.

Carson Workshops: The Future of Web Apps. Download the presentations.

If you can't make the Carson Workshops over in London, you can still download PDF's and MP3's of most of the presentations. If you're involved in tech or building new applications this might save you some airfare.
