I’ve been involved in Startup Weekend events since Andrew Hyde held his first event in Boulder in 2007. Ā As you know I’ve recently joined the board and have enjoyed watching the organization flourish. Ā OneĀ interestingĀ development is the growth of industry-focused events and it’s especially exciting to see Entrepreneurs and Educators collaborating Education-focused Startup Weekends. Ā A team of organizers in Boulder has put together a Startup Weekend Edu for next weekend (October 5th-7th) in Boulder and I’d love to see the tech community come out in support of entrepreneurship that focuses on making the lives of students, teachers, parents, and administrators better.
The judge panel is pretty impressive. Glenn MosesĀ (Denver blended learning guru) andĀ Dan DomagalaĀ (CIO for the Colorado Department of Ed) both signed on as judges, andĀ Congressman Jared PolisĀ will be joining SWedu-ers on Sunday morning. They need a few more sponsors for meals and have plenty of room for attendees. Please forward this out to your network and, if you haven’t confirmed your attendance, please do that now!
