A quick marathon to conceive good ideas – ‘Start-up weekend’
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - 6 Sept 2011 ) ‘Start-up weekend’, planned for 4-6 November at the BizDojo in Wellington is one of those web-oriented events that Wellington seems to be particularly good at pulling off.
The idea is to mix people, ideas, skills and resources, and see if new businesses can’t be conceived.
For sticK – science, technology, innovation & commercialisation KNOWLEDGE - is a new Wellington based news service concentrating on following the money from ideas to income. Contact editor Peter Kerr at peter.kerr055 @ gmail.com
