On January 5, 2012 in San Francisco, six student-run companies will launch their enterprise products to an audience of venture capitalists, media and other influencers at the inaugural DEMO Enterprise: An Evening of Innovation. We at Fusion-io are thrilled to be sponsoring this event.

It's a great fit, because Fusion-io made its original debut at DEMO in 2007 with an idea that many deemed revolutionary. Now that we're helping customers transform data centers around the world, Fusion-io is proud to give back to the DEMO community by sponsoring the inaugural DEMO Enterprise event and providing scholarships for the startups invited to present at this evening of innovation. Fusion-io Chief Scientist Steve Wozniak will also be on hand to participate in a special demonstration that will be sure to make DEMO Enterprise an event to remember.

DEMO is accepting applications for student-run companies that have a product focused on the enterprise to launch at DEMO Enterprise. All interested parties should submit initial company information here by December 23, 2011. For more information about DEMO Enterprise, check out the website or the press release.
