TechRaising

Santa Cruz are you ready?

Come build your startup or be part of one.

This weekend-long event brings together developers, designers, entrepreneurs, and other technical and non technical folk for a marathon weekend of product innovation and company building in an fun entreprenerial environment.

Build those ideas you've been talking about or be part of a team. This event is about collaboration, execution, accomplishment and showing what you've done.

Participants will gather on the evening of June 1st and have 90 seconds to pitch their idea for a product, service, or company to the group. After pitches have been completed, everyone will have a chance to dialog with each other and form teams to build the idea over the course of the weekend. The goal is to have something to demo or launch at the end of the weekend. Teams should consist of at least one developer (ideally two or more), one designer, and one business development/marketing person, but can be as large as necessary.

TechRaising is for people of all levels of experience, projects at any stage of development, and tech businesses in town are already encoraging their employees to particpate and help those less experienced. The line up of mentors is shaping up to be particularly impressive. People talk at other events. At this one we do things while getting advice from icons in the industry.

Businesses will get started. Companies will meet talent and see how they work in a fast paced challenging environment. And investors will get a look at new ideas and teams.
