Startup Weekend Hamilton 3 coming up April 26th – April 28th
Startup Weekend is a global network of leaders and entrepreneurs with the goal of promoting entrepreneurship in their community by organizing 54-hour events where developer, designers, marketers, product managers and professionals come together to share ideas, form teams, build products and launch startups!
For the last two years we have hosted Startup Weekend Hamilton where young professionals, students, startup enthusiasts in the Hamilton area and beyond (last year we had participants from Ottawa & Montreal!) joined us for 54-hours to launch startups and learn what it is like to participate in a startup venture. It is a terrific opportunity for professionals to learn about startups, work as team and find partners that complement their skills. You can find last year’s winning presentations here.
We have had companies like Nervu Ninja launch from our Startup Weekend Hamilton who went on to become one of the winners of Lion’s Lair, it is amazing that they meet each other, came up with the idea and developed a proof-of-concept in only 54-hours and are a successful small business in Hamilton.
This year Startup Weekend Hamilton 3 is from April 26-28, 2013 at Radius Cafe on James St. We expect it to be even bigger with more participants than the last two, you can find the information on the website here
