SUMMARY:Startup Weekend Geraldton
DESCRIPTION:Geraldton Startup Weekend offers everyone in the Midwest the opportunity to LEARN  how to turn an IDEA into a Startup and on to a viable venture or project. \nThis weekend is centered around action\, innovation\, and education. Whether you are looking for feedback on a idea\, a co-founder\, specific skill sets\, a team to help you execute\, or investment\, this Startup Weekends is the perfect environment in which to test your idea and take the first steps towards launching your own startup. \nTickets are available for only Friday night\, or the whole weekend\, register via Eventbrite: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/startup-weekend-geraldton-2014-tickets-12107781701 \nEntrepreneur’s Journey \nStartup Weekend is primarily a LEARNING experience\, where access to tools\, coaches\, mentors and collaborators accelerates your learning. While the best outcome is learning\, it also happens that Startup Weekend is the largest single source of new ventures. And while Startup Weekends origins are in the technology community (apps and software)\, globally this approach has now been used with a focus on healthcare\, women\, social challenges and more. Read more about the diverse locations and topics on the Startup Weekend site. \nNow\, thanks to MMG Golden Grove\, Up Global\, Pollinators Inc and Lifetime Services\, Startup Weekend is coming to Geraldton. We’ve tailored the schedule for our community and condensed into an amazing 30-hour event beginning with Friday night pitches\, and continuing on Saturday with brainstorming\, business model development\, customer validation\, basic prototyping and final presentations. \nFor Geradtlon Startup whether your idea is about technology\, arts\, or trying to solve a social problem\, this is your chance to knock it into shape\, FAST\, and gain momentum to realise your dream.
