    Dear all -

    I’m posting this on behalf of the forthcoming Galway Startup Weekend, of which I am co-organiser. http://galway.startupweekend.org

    Startup Weekend is a non-profit, community-building event that brings together entrepreneurs of different backgrounds, including software developers, marketers, designers, and other enthusiasts. They gather to to pitch ideas, form teams and start companies in just 54 hours. The participants that attend have 60 seconds to make a pitch (optional), the pitches are whittled down to the top ideas, and then teams form around the ideas to come out with several developed companies or projects. Finally, the weekend culminates with demonstrations in front of an audience of judges and potential investors.

    This is Galway’s first Startup Weekend, but the event occurs all over the world throughout the year and they have been very successful. The event will be held the weekend of Friday 14th November at the Cairnes Building in NUI Galway, and you can find more info at http://bit.ly/galstartweekend

    I hope many of you will join us and create a startup… Also, student tickets are half price. Half of our tickets are already gone.

    We have some great mentors including many founders and CEOs, and also judges including Barry O'Sullivan (Dragon's Den).

    I’d also greatly appreciate your help with spreading the word about the Galway Startup Weekend through your network, in particular through your connections. A simple tweet, LinkedIn share, blog post or e-mail from you could go a really long way towards drumming up more anticipation and participation. We are also on Facebook and Twitter @galstartweekend

    I look forward to seeing you at the event!

    Cheers,

    John Breslin for the Galway Startup Weekend team
