For South by Southwest 2011, we constructed a two-day long Dogpatch Labs SXSW and, over that period, hosted 100s of entrepreneurs. It was a lot of fun and a big success (TheStreet, Inc, NY Observer, etc).
The weekend also reminded me that there are a handful of exciting new companies who have recently joined Dogpatch Labs SF (see all here) and a couple great launches / announcements from former residents:
