startup weekend euroseattle | january 24-26, 2014
DESCRIPTION
Startup Weekend is a global grassroots movement of active and empowered entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures. It is the largest community of passionate entrepreneurs with over thousands of weekend-long events in 100+ countries around the world. All Startup Weekend events follow the same basic model: anyone is welcome to pitch their startup idea and receive feedback from their peers. Teams organically form around the top ideas (as determined by popular vote) and embark in a 54 hour frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation. The weekends culminate with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback, and maybe be recognized as a promising new venture! How will EuroSeattle Startup weekend be different? During this event, the Seattleite IT, web design and business communities will mingle with their local European counterparts from WA for a rich and multi-cultural win-win experience! If you believe that background diversity is an asset to a startup business, if you’d like to meet Europeans with fresh ideas, and find partners for your business locally, or if you eye to the European market as a place where your startup idea could also thrive, then join us at EuroSeattle Startup Weekend and make the dream come true!TRANSCRIPT
