Successful Startup Weekend San Diego 3 Wraps Up with 17 Startup Pitches + Video
Startup Weekend San Diego 3 saw over 100 participants come together, to form teams and launch seventeen new startups. This group of strangers with diverse skill-sets met on Friday night, and over the course of 54 hours formed teams, decided on a shared vision and worked toward creating a viable startup in time for a pitch to judges. By Sunday night, the excitement in the presentations was easy to see.
Thanks to all of those who participated and made this weekend a great success. And once again, thanks to our sponsors (Co-Merge, Cooley, SweetLabs, StackIQ, Founder Institute, Ansir Innovation Center, and Explanations Videos) for their support and our organizers Jennifer Newell, Wes Quach, and John Alexander for all of their effort in preparing a great weekend.
