Startup Weekend London 25th-27th November. #SWEL
Reading about Startup weekend on a blog, at Project Unbox we just had to be involved!
An event that connects people with all skills and backgrounds and in 54 hours gets them to create products and ideas ready to startup!
We went to see what it was all about and attended the education focussed startup in London 25th-27th November and it was brilliant!
Starting on Friday at 6pm, meeting and greeting before proposing ideas and forming teams to set to it on the Saturday creating your products and ideas ready to be presented on Sunday at 4pm.
All I can say was what a fantastic event with mentors, sponsors, and organisers so keen to help and create networks it opens up the idea of the skys the limit!
The ideas developed over the weekend were generally quite different to those proposed on the Friday but just shows how effective a brainstorming can be of creative minds.
Overall an amazing weekend that left me knackered the week after, if you work i would definitely suggest you take the next day off like a majority of the attendees did!
We met some amazing people and got us thinking about a whole new set of ideas.
The next UK one is proposed sometime in February! If it sounds like your cup of tea, DO IT! We’ll be there!
