StartupWeekendSF produces a record 23 startups

Startup Weekend 2: San Francisco

StartupWeekend brought together around 200 of the most talented people from the San Francisco Bay Area together at Microsoft’s offices in SF this past weekend – all with the common goal of building a startup in a 54 hour time span. Andrew Hyde, the founder of StartupWeekend, kicked off the event at 7pm on Friday which was followed by an introductory discussion by a set of speakers, some very familiar and popular names in the valley – Connie Chan, Dave McClure, Katherine Barr, Mark Jacobsen and Christine Herron. Tyler Willis, one of the main organizers of this event, did a great job of moderating this discussion.
