Waffle.io Progress: Stories in Ready

Developed for new tech colorado. (http://bdnt.org)

The app provides two visualizations over a map for companies within a state. Maximum zoom out summarizes all companies by county and displays them as a hotspot. Zooming into a hot spot displays a list of companies and their actual location on a map. Either zoom level can be filtered in real time to adjust the total number of companies displayed. Filters include: company found date, category of business, company provided tags, hiring, investment to date and employee count

Future: Ability to register for new tech events (integration with Meetup.com). Syncing company data with the startup genome project

Comments, contributors and forkers all welcome
