Techstars Organizer: “The United States was founded by entrepreneurs. We’re mobilizing Americans with ideas, talent and passion to team up like never before in changing the course of history.”
Startup Weekend – the most popular startup event in the world – has a format that has been adopted by teams in over 60 countries. Team USA is combining powerful tools and resources to redesign virtual event participation, and is recruiting many of the top Startup Weekend facilitators in the world for this once in a lifetime event.
The strength of Startup Weekend is connecting with amazing people. “This is the most passionate community I have ever been a part of,” says one of the facilitators. People work together in an intense environment and create very strong bonds, for many they will last a lifetime. We regularly see the power of this network between the facilitators, mentors, organizers, and participants who meet each other across the world and continue to engage in Startup Weekend. The wealth of talent that participates in Startup Weekends is tremendous.”
As a distributed event, Startup Weekend Remote USA offers a unique opportunity to enlist a wider range of talent than ever before for solutions in several categories: Health, Vulnerable Populations, Community, Businesses, Entertainment (and other). The top 20 teams from around the world will go on to participate in an exclusive Techstars Innovation Bootcamp experience.
