So, how will it look like?
Friday:
Networking, a funny warm-up game, and a brief presentation regarding the Startup Weekend Brno #4 will start before pitches. Initially, the event will start with the 1-minute pitches. In the end, more and more participants will grab the chance to pitch their business idea in front of “strange” people. Finally, teams will form around the most popular business ideas according to the votes. After that, the teams will immediately start to work on their projects.
Saturday:
After the attendant’s arrival, participants will have a breakfast before the hard work at 9:00 am. Our Facilitator will organize a helpful workshop for participants in the morning. After that, the teams leave the building and go outside to find potential customers. This is the most important thing during the Startup Weekend event.
BBQ Time:
Participants, mentors, and organizers will have the chance to take a break on Saturday afternoon during the BBQ event. During BBQ participants, organizers and mentors discuss in a friendly atmosphere, come closer, eat a lot and have a lot of fun as well. Having fun is the second most important thing during a Startup Weekend event.
Sunday:
Participants will come earlier and start to work harder on their projects. Another helpful workshop (How to pitch) will be organized on Sunday morning. If you want a successful Startup Weekend event, you should share the knowledge with your participants. Workshops are always a good way.
Final Test:
Participants will test their final pitches in front of our mentors on Sunday noon. From the other hand, mentors will provide useful feedback regarding the final pitches.
