SUMMARY:Startup Weekend Oxford
DESCRIPTION:Startup Weekend is an intense 54-hour event powered by Google for Entrepreneurs that operates worldwide and brings together entrepreneurs\, programmers\, coders\, developers and other business-minded individuals for a weekend of company creation. \nAll Startup Weekend events follow the same 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 weekends culminate with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback. \nStartup Weekend Oxford is organized by the employees of Innovate Mississippi. Contact Dee Hamill at dhamill@innovate.ms for more information.
