So why should you attend StartUp Weekend?

It’s an experience unlike any conference you’ve attended before.  Over the course of a single weekend, you get to take time out from your current venture/business and practice building a new one.  Think of it like time off the field.

Most ventures fail on Monday morning, which isn’t the point. The point is, you learn new skills, processes, coding frameworks, legal jargon, business practices, spread sheet programs, etc that you can bring back to your current venture.  Startup Weekend is a weekend warrior event where anything goes, and practice is implied.  You’re not judged (unless you judge) and learning is paramount.

People who attend the weekend stay in touch, hire each other and form new ventures as a result of  ‘colliding’ for 54 hours.  Its an awesome three days of networking, team building, coding, business planning and pitching (with some added cocktails and food).

What do you have to loose?
