About this event
Techstars Startup Weekend Viseu is an exciting and immersive foray into the world of startups. 🚀 Over an action-packed three days, you’ll meet the very best mentors, investors, co-founders, and sponsors to show you how to get more done faster - and maybe even start that business. 💼
The weekend kicks off on Friday afternoon where creativity and energy will set the tone. 🌟 We'll start with introductions, pitches, and stimulating brainstorming sessions. From there, teams will be formed, and work will begin!
Teams will collaborate intensely from Friday evening until Sunday, refining ideas and crafting prototypes in preparation for the final pitches. 💡 Participants will craft functional startups over the weekend, collaborating with diverse peers beyond their usual networks. 🤝 Expect insightful talks by local leaders and invaluable mentoring from seasoned entrepreneurs. 🌐 The teams will pitch their ideas at the end of the three days, and the best one will win! 🏆
You will leave this weekend feeling more capable than ever to launch that idea you had been sitting on. 🚀
