We are a group of people who want Austin-RR TechShop to stay. It is vital to keeping the creative energy of entrepreneurs, makers, & local artists alive.
from Dan Rasure : "Please don't forget to join at https://t.co/iBUymCDQXg . If you are waiting for one of the other locations [a.k.a. Austin] please join and you can cancel at the payment page. You will be registered as a prospective member. https://t.co/iBUymCDQXg "
(2/2) I think this means that Austin wasn't part of the deal that https://t.co/qXPMyuQ3UQ (Dan Rasure) did to get San Francisco back up and running. It seems like there might be a delay to get Austin back since I think they have to deal with the bankruptcy Trustee now.
(1/2) Received an email from https://t.co/qXPMyuQ3UQ (Dan Rasure). Bad news for Austin if I'm reading this right: "..I am shocked at how close we got to a deal to not get it done for the remaining shops. Regardless we will be working to buy the remaining shops out of Bankruptcy."
https://t.co/qXPMyuQ3UQ (formerly known as @techshop 2.0) opened today in San Francisco!!!! Way to go Dan Rasure! We can't wait for Austin to reopen, as well. https://t.co/5P8s83YErO
From Dan(3/3): "...your desire to have your shops open again is a strong motivator to continue forging ahead. I wish I had more to share, but the negotiations are still sensitive at this point. We will have a ton to share and I am looking forward to talking to all of you soon..."
From Dan R. (2/3): We are working nonstop to bring this to a resolution and announce shop openings. Every day I think we will be able to announce something and something else keeps us from completing a transaction. To say the least, it has been extremely disappointing at times.."
From Dan Rasure (1/3): "...I wanted to first thank everyone for continuing to hang in there as we finalize the transactions. This has turned into a very complicated deal with more than 20 major players involved, this doesn't include employees, instructors, vendors, or investors."
From Dan Rasure: "We are looking for pictures of your TechShop project photos. We will be using the photos on our new website and other general marketing material. Please send them to us in a message or email at [email protected] "
