We take any chance to celebrate the Bay Area's entrepreneurs that we can get, which is why we're excited for M7's event at Union Square's Cantina on August 11 that honors seven (a number we really like) up-and-coming "Revolucionarios" in the food & drink startup industries. It's an awesome chance to network, mingle, eat and party–all for a good cause, because 15% of door sales will go to benefit Habitat for Humanity. The first event a few months ago sold out quickly, and the winners of the 7x7 ticket giveaway have been chosen, so act fast by grabbing tickets here, unless you want to try your luck at the door.
This year, the honorees are Chelsea Mead of Kingdom Cake, Katie Shaffer of Toolbox Wine, Ashley Teplin of Media-ANT, Ceri Smith of Biondivino, Ignacio Delgadillo of Delgadillo Cellars, Cornelius Geary of Vintners Market and Pure Tequila, and Andrew Lazorchak of Soiree.
And get a load of what you get when you throw down for a VIP ticket: gift bag with offerings from all seven of the honorees (worth more than twice the price of your ticket!), plus a chance to win one of seven hand-crafted, M7 branded, deluxe wood collectors wine gift boxes filled with over $300 worth of products (wine, decanters, etc.) and services from "the Revolucionarios".
