If you are a would-be startup looking for inspiration using Drupal or even an organization that wants to act like a startup with Drupal, you’ve come to the right place. Startups, including spin-offs from existing companies, are using Drupal more often than we may notice. They are building their products on it, they are delivering their products through it, they are managing critical parts of their startup business with it -- they may even be driving around in cars using it!

This session will be a rapid-fire lightning shot of startup adrenaline as we present profiles on a whole pile of startups who are using Drupal to build, augment, and power their businesses. We’ll see how startups go Lean with Drupal, what works, and even in some cases what doesn’t.

Based on one-on-one interviews with each startup, this sharecase will cover Q&A topics such as:

• Why they picked Drupal
• What they use it for
• How long it took to release their MVP
• What were the results
• Would they do it again
• Advice to the next startup

Whether you are looking to build your startup on Drupal, curious about how other startups have done it, or just plain fascinated by the variety of things being built with Drupal, this session promises to provide you with plenty of Drupal startup food for thought.
