[CUSEC] Blitzweekend

[John Kopanas]

My buddy Heri is organizing a really cool event so I asked him to write an
email to my CUSEC buddies to tell them about it and see if anyone is
interested in it.

For everyone who went to CUSEC,

We have another fun event upcoming in Montreal, it's called Blitzweekend,
scheduled Friday 29th Feb, March 1st and March 2nd.

Teams of 3 to 8 are challenged to design, develop and deploy a project, a
product, a technology in just 2 days. On Sunday late afternoon, each team
must have a working prototype, and present it to the other teams. Every
participant then gets to vote on the most promising project.

We will provide the space, breakfast and dinner, wifi, and it's up to you to
organize your own team and come up with an idea.

Another feature we came up for the event are experts. If you are stuck in a
design or a technology problem, we will have on site technology gurus, UXP
designers, experienced entrepreneurs, business consultants who can help you
solve this problem and go forward.

We will also have a series of presentation Friday evening on Python
Frameworks, Ruby on Rails, Launching a technology startup, How to find
investment for your startup, and Facebook applications.

For those of you interested in startups, we also have partners like iNovia
Capital, BDO, Globalex and Embrase who are ready to support aspiring
entrepreneurs.

We have a website http://blitzweekend.com fpr more info and a blog
