Do you have an idea to bring to life? Ever thought organizing 50 events in 48 states over 115 days sounds like a good idea? How about four guys crammed into a Honda Element driving driving across the country?

Well, IdeaMensch is coming to Seattle.

IdeaMensch, a community of people who bring ideas to life, is embarking on a 48-state road trip across America. Their goal is put on an event in every state along the way and encourage people to start bringing to life their idea.

Their format is simple. Successful entrepreneurs from all walks of life give 10-15 minute long talks about their idea, and more importantly –  how they brought it to life. Following each talk, there will be a QA session for a conversation with the speaker. Also, bring your business cards because there will be some networking prior and following the evening’s program.

Past speakers and interviewees have included folks like Seth Godin, Jessica Jackley, Craig Newmark, Tony Hsieh, Nancy Brinker and Gary Vaynerchuk.

They’re coming to Seattle on July 11.

The event will be held at SURF Incubator, starting at 6pm. Featured speakers include:
- Rand Fishkin, co-founder and CEO of SEOmoz
- Molly Moon, the founder of Molly Moon’s Handmade Ice Cream
- Marc Nager, the CEO of Startup Weekend
- Kushal Chakrabarti, the founder and CEO of Vittana

- Garth Knutson, the gentleman behind WhatTheKlout.com

Come and listen to all these speakers share their lessons of bringing to life their ideas and businesses.

Early-bird tickets are $15, but you can get $5 off by using the coupon code: IM48
