Second Annual Crappies Awards
Join us on Thursday, February 5 at 5:45pm at Davies Symphony Hall (201 Van Ness Ave, San Francisco, California 94102) to mockingly celebrate this past year's most horrific actions within the Tech corporate world.
As we did last year, we will be protest the annual Tech Crunch award ceremony - The Crunchies - with our own award ceremony - The Crappies. On Thursday the 5th, come join us as Ron Conway awards the most egregious acts of irresponsibility to different tech company representatives, their CEOS, and the politicians granting them impunity.
SFCrap kicks off 2015 with the 2nd Annual Crappy Awards, the annual ceremony to recognize the worst players of the year in the San Francisco Takeover Venture. Up for nomination is Ed Lee, Airbnb's Brian Chesky, Uber, the Dropbox Dudes, Jack Halprin, Travis Allen, and more!
Come dressed in your finest! Perhaps you will win an award!

Billionaire venture capitalist Ron Conway has constructed an apparatus to control the City and County of San Francisco. In 2012, Conway's net worth was reported at $1.5 billion. But being filthy rich isn't enough for Ron; he wants power too—and in San Francisco, money buys it.
In 2010, Conway let loose the battle cry to "take the City back" from progressives. Through a web of investments, pseudo-philanthropic foundations, private donations, political contributions, aggressive lobbying, and shrewd tinkering with City agencies, Conway and his cohorts are realizing his agenda to upend the political landscape of San Francisco.
What they are actually doing is taking the City from its long time residents, adding to the displacement of working families, the elderly, artists and other less well-heeled members of our community. His first foray into local politics—funding the "Sit/Lie" law—made his agenda clear: Aggressively displace all who can't pay to get into his party.
Ron Conway and the Venture Capitalists make our City really Crappy!
