Hey guys,

Have you ever wondered what it takes to be an entrepreneur?

Startup Weekend Adelaide is an intense 54 hour event which focuses on building a web or mobile application which could form the basis of a credible business over the course of a weekend.

After a sellout first event, the weekend will again bring together people with different skillsets - primarily software developers, graphics designers and business people - to build applications and develop a commercial case around them.

 

Startup Weekend follows a 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 then it’s a 54 hour frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation.

 

The weekend culminates with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial and there are $19,000+ in prizes to be won.

 

Whether entrepreneurs start companies, find a co-founder, meet someone new, or learn a skill far outside their usual 9-to-5, everyone is guaranteed to leave the event better prepared to navigate the chaotic but fun world of startups.

Come share ideas, form teams, and launch startups!

Date: Friday 16 (6.30pm-9pm,) Saturday 17 (9am-9pm,) and Sunday 18 (9am-9pm) November 2012.

Venue: Flinders University City Campus - Level 1, 182 Victoria Square (corner of Flinders Street.)

Cost: $99 (or less) per person or 2-for-1 ($49.50 each.) Price includes all meals.
