Startup Weekend

Upcoming Weekends

So we’ve got lots in store for Startup Weekend and I wanted to fill everyone in on what they should be expecting and some of the details of the upcoming events.

San Antonio Startup Weekend will be around the corner before you know it and I’m very excited! Taking place May 16th-18th at the  San Antonio Technology Center this one is going to be a BLAST. I’ve been talking with several talented people in San Antonio including Jennifer Navarrete and Celeste Diaz Ferraro about all of the cool things that will be happening and they have helped get the ball rolling like you wouldn’t believe.

This Startup Weekend takes place at an awesome facility in that we will have the necessities such as Internet access and some fun entertainment, a place to relax, a place for fun and games and much more.

May 16th is quickly approaching and as always our space is limited so if you haven’t reserved your spot please consider doing so as quickly as possible. At $40 for three days filled with learning, community building, fun, schwag, food, drinks and more you can’t get a better deal.

We’ve got the facilities Friday at 6pm - 10pm, Saturday 9am - midnight, Sunday 9am - 9pm and can’t wait to see you at the event!

Also for those of you in the Portland area or attending the WebVisions event we’ve got another weekend coming up that will be of interest.

Portland Startup Weekend will be kicking off at the end of the amazing WebVisions event which will be the place to be for anyone who consider themselves a technology enthusiast on Thursday and Friday.

Read more up on the WebVisions event here and plan on sticking around Portland because Portland Startup Weekend gets kicked off after the WebVisions event and the ending keynote by Google’s own Jeffrey Veen. Be sure to hurry and register for $40 for Portland Startup Weekend. Spots are being reserved fast and you will want to attend.

In the pipe as well is the Memphis Startup Weekend which will be taking place May 30th - June 1st. I’m really excited for this one as well because Harry Brown and the guys in Memphis are doing an AMAZING job of getting the community around the idea of LaunchMemphis. This is really cool because they’ve got the entire community buzzing about technology and startups for six weeks with Startup Weekend being the climax of the event. Again at only $40 you can’t find a three day event with more food, fun, and scwag for a better price. Head on over here and get registered for the event and if you are in the Memphis area be sure to read up on LaunchMemphis and the other great events these guys have planned for the area.

We’ve got even more great weekends coming soon and I’ll be keeping you all up-to-date on the latest here on the website so stay tuned.
