Startup Weekend Byblos
Startup Weekend makes its way to Byblos, Lebanon for the second time on November 15-17, 2013. SW Byblos will take place at the Lebanese American University in Byblos, Lebanon.
The event will follow the basic Startup Weekend model, anyone can pitch their idea, receive feedback, and vote on others' ideas. Teams form around the top startup ideas and delve into a 54-hour long frenzy involving coding, designing, business model creation, and market validation. The teams then present their refined ideas in front of local key figures of entrepreneurship.
In partnership with Startup Weekend Byblos, GDG Beirut is organizing a bootcamp for Startup Weekend Byblos participants (though you can still attend the bootcamp if you are not participating at SW Byblos) on Saturday, November 9th.
