<div dir="ltr">Awesome, thanks Rob. <div><br></div><div>I re-browsed the website and it looks more like a weekend of how startups are planned/work rather than something I should arrive with a working prototype to. I'll see if I can attend the Sunday dinner :)</div>

It’s an intense and fun weekend where folks come to pitch an idea, form teams, and then spend the weekend building prototypes and a business plan around the idea. The teams have mentors to help them along with building plans and prototyping and Sunday night the teams pitch out in front of a set of judges made up of business experts and investors at the Space and Rocket Center. Thousands of dollars in prizes too. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">If anyone is interested I was going to come by tomorrow night to answer any questions. It’s a great opportunity if you have an idea, or just want to spend the weekend working with a team on a cool project.<u></u><u></u></p>
