From pitch to startup in just 48 hours! Free to CSU students, faculty and staff.

 

What is Startup Weekend?

Hosted by the Institute for Entrepreneurship, Fort Collins Startup Weekend: Music Innovation is a three-day event for aspiring entrepreneurs interested in learning how to rapidly develop and launch their own business and product ideas. This year's workshop will focus on pitches relating to the music industry that carry the potential for more widespread adoption, but all concepts are welcome!

What is the schedule? 

Attendees will pitch their ideas after arriving on Friday night, followed by voting to determine which concepts move forward and the teams that will be working on them over the weekend.

If your idea doesn’t get picked, don't worry! You'll get to vote for another idea and work in that team. Whether it's your idea or someone else's; the process of the weekend is the same!

The workshop wraps up on Sunday night with final group pitches, juding and awards. Group pitches can be attended by those who are not taking part in the full weekend event and are free and open to public. Registeration for those interested in just attending the pitches is available on the Startup Weekend: Music Innovation Pitch Night page.

View the full schedule on the Fort Collins Startup Weekend Eventbrite page.
