Are you a big idea person? Well, then this event is for you...

Startup Weekend is a 54-hour event that provides resources and incentives to help local students, developers, innovators and entrepreneurs build successful startup companies. The event has been hosted in more than 53 cities in 12 countries, resulting in the creation of more than 280 new companies. This marks the second occasion a Startup Weekend event will be held Detroit.

Open to anyone interested in metro Detroit’s growing technology and interactive community, Startup Weekend Detroit participants will work in teams over the course of a single weekend to create, develop and launch new business ideas. On the final day of the event, each team will present their new company, share their progress and discuss next steps.

If you're not interested in launching a startup, this is still a great event to meet people and go through the whole business building process. We'd love to have your talent for the weekend!

Building hours:
Friday 6pm - 10pm
Saturday 9am - 9pm
Sunday 9am - 7pm

There will be food and beverages. :)

Tickets to the event are $50 for professionals and $40 for students. For more information, visit www.detroit.startupweekend.org or follow the Startup Weekend Detroit 2010 hashtag on Twitter (#SWD2010).
