We have decided that pouring some champagne on it is required. On Bucharest Hubb that is.

That’s why, on the 4th of March we are throwing a party to celebrate the opening of the first business accelerator for online startups in Romania. Access is free for members, partners and people on process of becoming members. If you are not in one of these categories and didn’t receive a private invite, you can join us with a PARTY PASS. The passes will participate in a raffle and one guest will win a month of free trial at Bucharest Hubb.

We have a limited number of party passes (50) for those who want to come and you can ask for yours by email at contact[at]bucharesthubb.com or by phone: 0727566986, until 3rd of march, 14.00.

The party will take place at Bucharest Hubb, on 21st, Stelea Spatarul St. We will inaugurate the Party Room on this occasion.

We finally opened Bucharest Hubb for public! Since the 1st of February 2010 you can benefit from the first space open exclusively to online professionals and entrepreneurs in Romania. Bare in mind though that we are in “public beta”. There is still some fine tuning to do in order to offer an extraordinary membership experience. You are expected to sign up for membership at Bucharest Hubb by filling in the registration form on the club’s website. You will be contacted to set a time and date for your visit. You can also contact us for details and questions by email (contact[at]bucharesthubb.com) or phone (0727566986).

The big surprise of the launch is the prize that we offer for those who register as members until the 1st of March 2010. New members have the chance* of winning an Ipad, the last gadget signed by Apple.

If you are already thinking to become a member of the club here’s what you should do in order to get a chance of winning the Ipod:

1. Register for membership until the 28th of February, 23:59.

2. Pay your membership fee in advance for at least 3 months until the 28th of February, 23:59.

3. Publish a post on your blog about this contest with a link to this article. Or tweet about it with a link to this article. Or share about this contest on your facebook wall with a link to this article. You choose.

We will select the winner from all the members that qualify for the contest, on the 3rd of March 2010, at Seedmoney Wednesday Breakfast.

While we were brainstorming about making Bucharest Hubb “a place of choice” for Romanian online community, we realized that even the people involved in the club’s logistics must enjoy spending time there. Thus, our goal is to have as little employees as possible to operate Bucharest Hubb. That’s because usually employees feel compelled by working hours, labor agreement and most likely they will call it “work”.

So, our solution for having passion and fun amongst the people who contribute to Bucharest Hubb functioning is to empower them and let them be creative.

Would you fancy being a member of the Bucharest Hubb? For free? Keep reading! :)
We need 9 persons that want to help us voluntarily with specific activities such as: attracting new members, PR, internal events, retention, referrals and partnerships. Such activities require 2 up to 3 hours a day for someone that is already involved in a personal project or even a job.

We prefer people with marketing and communication experience that can work independently and are natural born enthusiasts. Being in online industry is a must, just like for all members of the club.

If you want to help us out with the logistics of the Hubb, we would be more than happy to offer you free membership throughout your activity here. Just drop us a line as soon as possible at cristina[at]seedmoney.ro, on our twitter account or on our Facebook page.
