Welcome to the 2016 StickerGiant Sponsorship Desk, where we'll be bringing all of the updates and information for amazing community events, from WordCamp to Ignite talks. This weekend is one of our favorites, Startup Weekend! Starting today, entrepreneurs of all stripes will descend on Grand Rapids for Startup Weekend West Michigan.
A little bit more about how Startup Weekend works from their website:
All 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.
We wanted to give a shout-out to all of the organizers and attendees--enjoy your cool NASA-themed event sticker and build something awesome. Here's a video of last year's event. Pretty cool. Startup Weekend 2014 from Skyward Visual on Vimeo.
