Startup Grind Halifax has announced that its next event will focus on bootstrapping and will feature Eric Bahn, who spent just $32,000 on a site that he sold for millions.

Led by entrepreneur Oleg Yefymov, Startup Grind brings in speakers for the startup community in the city. Its recent speakers have included the likes of OurCrowd Founder Jonathan Medved (whose talk can be seen here) and Washington, D.C.-based venture capitalist Paul Singh.

Bahn, who now works with 500 Startups, will speak at 6 pm on Jan. 26 at the Innovacorp Enterprise Centre on Summer Street. Early-bird rates end today and tickets are available here.

Bahn is a Co-founder of Hustle Con Media, which promotes events and content to help non-technical entrepreneurs launch startups. Previously, he was the founder and CEO of Beat The GMAT, the largest MBA applicant social network on the internet, serving 3 million people each year. He grew annual revenue to more than $1 million and eventually sold the company to Hobsons, Inc.

This bootstrapping talk will be relevant to anyone who is trying to avoid raising money or to those who just struggling with it.
