Startup Weekend Wrap up

It’s been a week since Startup Weekend and we’re finally caught up on sleep! We ended up winning Startup Weekend too! What does that mean? Well we won $2000 from Macupdate, 5 hours of legal advice from Honigman, Miller, Schwartz and Cohn, as well as a year’s free office space in the Bureau all to help us improve and build upon our initial company idea. We’ve since met, split up roles, and are trying to head towards the right direction to build upon what we completed in just 54 hours.

Here our a few news articles about the event:
