Startup Weekends are all about learning through the act of creating. This global grassroots movement of active and empowered community leaders and entrepreneurs from a variety of backgrounds are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures. Participants with varying specialties come together to share ideas, form teams and launch startups from the bottom up.

This Startup Weekend is designed to engage more female entrepreneurs and provide them the necessary resources for long term success. The weekend will be a focused on empowering women within our community to lend their voice to innovation. It will be one of over 200 Women’s Startup Weekends happening around the globe, and the winners have an opportunities to be featured by Techstars Global Startup Weekend.

While Startup Weekend understands it takes a community of creative thinkers to help build an idea from concept through to execution, this event will be supporting women pitches only. In doing so, we ensure women are able to hone their creative and entrepreneurial talent in a safe environment that inspires risk taking and innovation with the help of the broader community of men and women ready to share their expertise to champion change and fuel new ideas.
