SEE WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!
Come be a part of this great opportunity to learn, network and pitch your business at USC Upstate’s The George, 160 East St. John Street conveniently located in downtown Spartanburg.
Startup Weekend is a 50 hour event where attendees pitch ideas, form teams and start companies. Startup Weekends happen all over the world and roughly follow the same model. Anyone can pitch a startup idea on Friday night. All participants vote on their favorite concepts, and people organically form teams based on interest. It all culminates with a pitch event on Sunday evening where judges with experience investing in startups give feedback and pick a winner.
We are community focused and provide a place for budding entrepreneurs to find co-founders, mentors and momentum for their ideas. We have a great team of successful local entrepreneurs and business experts to work with you every step of the way.
It’s a New Year and Startup Weekend provides a great opportunity to keep that resolution you have always had to start your own venture! No experience required, just great ideas, passion and the commitment to make things happen
There’s great working space at The George, free parking and plenty of food. For out-of-towners, we have booked a block of affordable rooms at the downtown Marriott, a five-minute walk to The George. Just mention our name. (Startup Weekend Spartanburg)
