🌳 Startup Weekends are 54-hour events designed to provide superior experiential education for technical and non-technical entrepreneurs. Beginning with Friday night pitches and continuing through brainstorming, business plan development, and basic prototype creation, Startup Weekends culminate in Sunday night demos and presentations.
👥 Participants create working startups during the event and are able to collaborate with like-minded individuals outside of their daily networks. All teams hear talks by industry leaders and receive valuable feedback from local entrepreneurs.
🚀 The weekend is centered around action, innovation, and education. Whether you are looking for feedback on an idea, a co-founder, specific skill sets, or a team to help you execute, Startup Weekends are the perfect environment in which to test your idea and take the first steps towards launching your own startup.
The theme, ‘Reimagine Learning’ aims to push participants to look beyond the traditional method of learning. From culinary to academics or even leadership training, learning can be made more innovative in knowledge acquisition, experiential learning and skills development.
Breaking out from the traditional method of information dissemination, the medium for learning has gone beyond classrooms into platforms such as virtual reality, e-learning, and peer-to-peer learning where strangers can exchange skills which they are mutually interested in. Imagine how the collusion of technology and creativity can transform the way we learn. Possibility are endless, so let your imagination run wild!
