It was standing room only last night at the Warehouse Artists Loft as Sacramento startup fans gathered to watch the pitches from 10 new startups from Hacker Lab’s second Startup Hustle cohort.
Seats filled up early during the networking part of the event.
People arrived early for networking and to check in with the startup at their booths and by the time Hacker Lab co-founder Eric Ullrich was ready to kick things off for the evening, it was standing room only.
