Startup Weekend Baltimore

[Dave Troy]

Passing this along from John Trupiano of SmartLogic:

Baltimore's first Startup Weekend is happening Fri, Apr 15 – Sun, Apr
17th, and we wanted to get the word out to all of you! As a developer,
you can use "helloworld" for a 20% off discount code.

If you're not familiar, the concept of Startup Weekend is to build a
business in a weekend. 100+ designers, developers, business and
marketing people are going to meet on Friday and break into teams of 5
– 10 to see if they can build a product by Sunday. (We have over 80
attendees registered so far with 2 weeks to go). We provide them
space, food, and coaches to help them along the way. On Sunday night,
the teams will present what they've worked on (hopefully a launched
website / product) to a large audience at the UMD BioPark and a panel
of 6 – 10 distinguished judges. The top 3 teams will take home prizes
and cash from our pool, expected to be around $10,000.

Want to Participate?
Please make sure to get your ticket before we sell out. Each person
that has a ticket will be able to participate in the competition as
well as be served food and drinks throughout the weekend. We've got 7
catered meals (including vegan/vegetarian options). You can get your
tickets here » http://bit.ly/bsw-tickets

* Also, if you only want to come to the presentations on Sunday night,
you'll need to have a ticket for that, which you can buy on our
tickets page as well.

Want to Sponsor?
This event can't be a success without the help from our sponsors. For
each sponsorship level, we're offering something in return. Please
take a look at our sponsorship levels and consider sponsoring this
