5 Things You'll Gain at Startup Weekend KC



The smell of a new car, the crispness of a new dollar bill, the softness of a new pillow.  We can't deny it: we love newness.  After all, having something new makes us feel like we're creating a fresh start.  So why not surround yourself with complete newness on April 13th?  


We're talking about Startup Weekend Kansas City; the opportunity for you to start fresh on a new business idea!  


Startup Weekend is a global network of passionate leaders and entrepreneurs on a mission to inspire, educate and empower individuals, teams and communities.  With this goal in mind, Startup Weekend puts together 54-hour events that focus on building a web or mobile application over the course of just one weekend.  And it's back this year for a fifth time in Kansas City on April 13, 2012.
