Hi everyone, Apologies if this is slightly off-topic, but I thought some of you budding entrepeneurs might be interested in this.
The Founder Institute is planning on coming out to Sydney in February next year if there's enough interest. Basically they deliver after-hours training classes to get you equipped to build and run your own startup. The course consists of a weekly class over about 4 months and would cost around $900 (pricing to be finalised, it could be cheaper). If this sounds like something you might be interested in, go put your name and email in this form to register your interest. (You don't need to fill all of it out, nor is it a binding commitment). They just need about 20-30 more participants to make it happen. http://bit.ly/sydneyfi Here's some more info: > The Founder Institute vision is to Globalize Silicon Valley by creating and > fostering local startup ecosystems in promising markets across the globe.

I've been chatting with Benjamin Ranck (contactable at [email protected]) who's working hard to get this over to Sydney. So if you have any more questions please contact him directly.
