DESCRIPTION

Build an amazing startup in Townsville, all over the course of one weekend. We’re happy to announce that we are getting Townsville’s 1st ever Startup Weekend off the ground! The goal is to create an environment where passionate people can come together to get things done; to learn, network, bridge the gap between trades, expose potential and see actual results. Startup Weekend has held 1500+ events in 150+ countries around the world, and we are looking forward to making a big dent in TOWNSVILLE. Furthermore, together with SW events in the Gold Coast and Cairns in the same weekend, this will be the "largest combined Startup Weekend in Australia", including live streaming from each event to the others!
