Prepare for the Global Startup Celebration
Be one of over 15,000 entrepreneurs who will come together for hundreds of events during November 2018 for Techstars Global Startup Weekend!
Techstars Global Startup Weekend Los Angeles (TGSW) connects entrepreneurs, organizing teams, and startup communities around the world. As an attendee you will get access to exclusive resources to help prep for success at Techstars Startup Weekend and make connections with mentors and other startup teams. To help you keep growing after the event, the winning team of each event will receive helpful perks for building their startup as well as a showcase in our global channels.
Do you have an idea you'd like to pursue or a problem you'd like to solve but don't know where to start or who to start with?
Techstars Startup Weekend is the place to look for a team, create a prototype of your idea, validate your business idea, and receive feedback from experienced entrepreneurs, all in one weekend.
What do you need to bring?
Lots of energy! You'll pitch your own idea or listen to others, then vote on the most interesting ideas and form teams with diverse skill sets. You can come with friends, but you’ll get the full experience if you participate in separate teams. Remember, it’s all about the team.
Your idea should be something you have not previously worked on. The idea you pitch and the problem you set out to solve can span social, educational, financial, environmental, or other issues. Over the course of the weekend you'll be challenged to create a prototype of your MVP, or minimum viable product, that fits the needs of your target customer. You'll get feedback, iterate, and likely pivot your approach entirely! Important: You cannot have worked previously on your idea.
Techstars Startup Weekend is a full weekend long experience. Your ticket includes:

Jen
Bilik is the owner and founder of Knock Knock, celebrated independent makers of
clever gifts, books, and whatever else they can think up.
Drawing
from her background in book editing, writing, graphic design, and various arts
and crafts, Jen was initially motivated by creative inspiration: the desire to
write and design at the same time, to create products that blended words and
visual presentation, as well as to bring personality and distinct sensibility
to the marketplace at a moment when corporate homogenization was the name of
the game.
Initially
a reluctant businessperson, Jen quickly became a passionate entrepreneur who
speaks about the business side of Knock Knock as often as the creative
side. Knock Knock goods are carried in some 6,000 stores across the United
States, from independent boutiques to retailers including Barnes & Noble
and Target, as well as in 45 countries around the globe.
Jen
has been profiled by publications including the New
York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Inc.
magazine, and interviewed for podcasts such as
Debbie Millman’s Design Matters. She has done extensive public
speaking and event moderation. Also, she’s fascinating.
Since
launching Knock Knock in 2002, Jen has performed every role and made every
mistake—and lived to tell the tale.
