JOIN <strong>THE</strong> MOVEMENT<br />

I<br />

n the past few years, the Lean Startup movement has gone global.<br />

The number of resources available <strong>for</strong> aspiring entrepreneurs is<br />

incredible. Here, I’ll do my best to list just a few of the best<br />

events, books, and blogs <strong>for</strong> further reading and further practice.<br />

The rest is up to you. Reading is good, action is better.<br />

The most important resources are local. Gone are the days where<br />

you had to be in Silicon Valley to nd other entrepreneurs to share<br />

ideas and struggles with. However, being embedded in a startup<br />

ecosystem is still an important part of entrepreneurship. What’s<br />

changed is that these ecosystems are springing up in more and more<br />

startup hubs around the world.<br />

I maintain an ocial website <strong>for</strong> The Lean Startup at<br />

http://theleanstartup.com, where you can nd additional resources,<br />

including case studies and links to further reading. You will also<br />

nd links there to my blog, Startup Lessons Learned, as well as<br />

videos, slides, and audio from my past presentations.<br />

Lean Startup Meetups<br />

Chances are there is a Lean Startup meetup group near you. As of<br />

this writing, there are over a hundred, with the largest in San<br />

Francisco, Boston, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. You can<br />

nd a real-time map of groups here: http://leanstartup.meetup.com/.<br />

You can also nd a list of cities where people<br />

are interested in starting a new group, and tools to set one up
