I would like to announce yet another cool tech startup event, <http://kampala.startupweekend.org/> Startup Weekend Kampala that will happen in Kampala on April 27th - 29th 2012 at the <http://goo.gl/B68O3> MTN Training center in Ntinda. Startup Weekend is a non-profit, community-building event that brings together entrepreneurs of all backgrounds including software developers, marketers, designers, and other enthusiasts 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 the first Startup Weekend in Kampala, but the event occurs all over the world throughout the year and they have been very successful. <http://www.startupweekend.org/> http://startupweekend.org We shall invite 100 brave and active startup-minded people who want to develop their ideas into a developed company or project within 54 hours. A great team of mentors/judges has been lined up for this event. The build-up to Startup Weekend Kampala will begin with a Startup Weekend Bootcamp in April. Registration to Startup Weekend Kampala will begin on 19th March 2012 therefore get your creative juices flowing.
