Hurry up with your application; the number of places is limited. The deadline for submitting your application is March 25th 2014!
The Start-up Weekend is an intensive entrepreneurially fun weekend during which different teams, consisting of students from different faculties, compete, trying to create the best prototype or company business model with help of newest methodologies (Design Thinking, Lean start-up and Business Model Generation) in an incredibly short time as well as check it on the market. At this weekend, the mentors and we will give special attention to ideas that solve particular social challenges. We will thus encroach on the topic of social entrepreneurship!

Participants’ experience
“The start-up weekend was a unique experience and, despite an 18-hour workday, a sweet one. During work, experienced mentors stood at our side, guiding us. The start-up weekend is definitely for all those who have the will to live more dynamically, live a life where personal business success mostly depends on you. It’s not enough to just have an idea, you need to have a wish to realize it and the courage to take risks.” Gregor Treska, Start-up weekend Ljubljana participant in November 2013.
You don’t need a business idea to apply, but it is desired you have one. Everybody who’s creative, driven and ready to work in a team is a welcome participant. If you don’t have a business idea, you will join one of the teams and help realize its idea with your knowledge.
You will acquire practical business skills, from selling, performing and networking to leading, staffing, negotiating and much more! Everything you need today for your personal and career development!
Do you have a business idea that would solve a social problem? Join us. Mentors with experience from the field of social entrepreneurship will be with us. Bring your friends and classmates to the event, so that you won’t be alone!
