SOUTH COAST START UP CAMP

Got a really clever idea for a web business? Want to learn how to turn it into reality?

Then come to the Sea Change Start Up Camp in Merimbula on March 9th 2012...one of the first StartUp Camps ever to be held outside of a Metropolitan region in Australia

Start Up Camp is an intensive entrepreneurship workshop where participants will go from an idea to a concept web business in one weekend.
Participants apply as individuals and work in teams of 5 or 6. You don't need to have an idea of what you want to build, teams will brainstorm ideas on the first day.

At the end of the weekend you will:

• have experienced the thrill of starting a business
• have met and learned from some experienced Australian entrepreneurs
• have worked hard and had a lot of fun

Whatever your strength - Technical, Marketing, Sales, Finance, Operations - there’s a role for you with a great entrepreneurial team building the next big thing.

Places are limited, so click here to register now and secure your spot!

Missing your annual dose of SUCC? (ok, it is an unfortunate acronym, isn't it?)

Alas, there will be no weekend all nighter, fuelled by adrenaline, coffee and Zambrero's burritos with 30-40 of your new best friends this year.

Start Up Camp Canberra is officially on hiatus for 2011.

However, it will return in March 2012. 

If you are interested in joining Lighthouse, The Australian National University and the University of Canberra as sponsors of this fun and innovative exercise in Web entrepreneurism, please contact us to get on the list for a Sponsorship Offer Brief which will line the in-tray of every one I can think of by December (hey, you try feeding 40 hungry coders and marketing gurus the cheap??). 

Seriously, we are working hard to incorporate many of your suggestions about changes in the format and timing.  We've also got some surprises up our sleeves that we hope will give the teams a boast in terms of making their web and mobile application come world domination dreams come true.

In the meantime, UC and ANU faculty, students and staff have a great opportunity to get their start-up 'groove on' this year by being part of InnovationACT.

The program runs 17 August to 11 November 2011.   Learn heaps, work on a business idea, get mentors and possibly win $25,000 (that buys lots of burritos!). 

Following on the success of the last SUC, there is a new online and meet up group forming. Here are the details:

The inaugural Canberra Startups meet will be a friendly, social chat over some drinks. No structure or speeches, just a good entrepreneurial bit of socialising and sharing of information. Bring along any ideas you have for future events. And do come say hello when you arrive - google me for a pic :-)
