Startup Weekends are 54-hour events designed to provide superior experiential education for technical and non-technical entrepreneurs. In the coming weeks Startup Weekends will take place in Zürich, Lucerne, Lugano and Sierre.

Startup Weekend is a global network of passionate leaders and entrepreneurs on a mission to inspire, educate, and empower individuals, teams and communities. It centers around events where teams together with coaches work on business ideas. In the coming weeks Startup Weekends will be held in Zurich (16 - 18 May) and Lucerne (23 - 25 May), Sierre (23 - 25 May) and Lugano (23 - 25 May).

Beginning with Friday night pitches and continuing through brainstorming, business plan development, and basic prototype creation, Startup Weekends culminate in Sunday night demos and presentations. Participants create working startups during the event and are able to collaborate with like-minded individuals outside of their daily networks. On average, half of Startup Weekend’s attendees have technical or design backgrounds, the other half have business backgrounds. All teams hear talks by industry leaders and receive valuable feedback from local entrepreneurials.

The weekend is centered around action, innovation, and education. Whether you are looking for feedback on an idea, a co-founder, specific skill sets, or a team to help you execute, Startup Weekends are the perfect environment in which to test your idea and take the first steps towards launching your own startup. Roughly 80% of participants plan on continuing working with their team or startup after the weekend.
