We have a Startup Weekend in western India on the Kathiawar peninsula in the country's Gujarat state. The folks at Startup Weekend Rajkot ordered up a custom die cut sticker from our brand spankin' new die cut machine. Just look all of these beautiful colors serving as a backdrop for a simple vector outline of Ganhdi strolling with his walking stick, who was born and raised in a Hindu merchant family in coastal Gujarat. Fitting, then, that's he's on this bold, memorable custom shaped sticker for an innovation-themed event.
Startup Weekend is a 54 hour event that brings together designers, developers, entrepreneurs, and experts from all domains to do amazing things. The motto: No talk. All action.
All Startup Weekend events follow the same basic model: anyone is welcome to pitch their startup idea and receive feedback from their peers. Teams form around the top ideas (as determined by popular vote) and embark on a three-day frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation. The weekend culminates with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback.
