A great summary of the teams
Gotta give props to Trevor over at Startup Flavor, wrote a great summary of the teams we had come out of Startup Weekend. Still blown away at how great of an event this was, good work everyone!
Take a look - LINKY
Winners are in
We’ll do a bit more detail tomorrow, but the winners are -
- WeShop
- RateMyTenants
- Unicorn Sex Appeal
The polish on design and progress in code was evident in each one of the presentations. I’ve seen incubator companies that didn’t accomplish in 3 months what these teams did in 2 1/2 days. Seriously impressed.
WHAT A WEEK!
We’ve been building. Here’s the final presentation order for tonight -
- FB Wedding Address Helper
- Tasquach

- Tweet Graph
- Afterthought

Get ready!
Hey everyone, very excited to be rocking this tomorrow. Great support all around, have some awesome folks flying in to represent their APIs and help people make huge progress.
I’ll send out an email tonight, but a few things to remember -
| Parking |
Parking at the school is free, just come park where there is space, no permit needed.
| Tickets |
Be sure to print and bring your tickets for a quick check-in.
| What to bring |
- Laptop
- Charger
- A good attitude
- Business cards (or at least some way to share/collect your contact info)
- Camera
- Creative energy
- Anything else you want to bring to launch a cool startup.
| Keep it social |
Twitter: @SWSaltLake -be sure to use hashtag #swslc in your tweets
| Bandwidth |
We’re trying to make sure the internet will support us, they assure us we’ll be fine, but they’ve never seen this level of geekery in one room, so I’m planning for the worst. Help us keep speeds to a maximum by:
- Downloading large files before the weekend
- Bringing you own hotspot or 3G or 4G broadband cards
Can’t wait to get this thing going, gather ideas, mull over them intently, nimble your fingers and prepare to rock.
Google Android / HTML5 bootcamp
If you’re thinking about brushing up on your skills before startup weekend, join us for a bootcamp hosted by the good fellas over at Google where they’ll spend a few hours showing off Android / HTML5 and answering any tech questions you may have around it. If you want to jump in, it’ll be at the SLCC campus here the saturday before SW, sign up here - http://slcswbootcamp.eventbrite.com/
