60 entrepreneurs will do their thing to lay the foundations of 3 startups in one Weekend!
iWeekend is an intensive and innovative experience that brings together talented entrepreneurs and professionals of different profiles to select 3 ideas and bring these ideas to reality by collaboratively developing a business plan and a prototype, all in one weekend.
iWeekend is targeted towards technologists, designers, marketers, business and finance professionals, lawyers, etc. with a passion for technology and the intention of founding a startup or working in one.
We believe that there is no better way to network and meet other restless minds than by working with them side by side for two full days. iWeekend is ideal for entrepreneurs looking to get started and for professionals and freelancers looking to broaden their horizons while taking on a challenge and collaborating in a project they like.
The final outputs of the event include a prototype, a basic business plan, a product demo and a possible team.
1. Promote the culture of entrepreneurship in new technologies
2. Foster a practical methodology of knowledge sharing and learning-by-doing, and
3. Help talented entrepreneurs to get started in 2 days flat
