Calling all Startup Weekend founders!
Startup Weekend is creating a database of ventures that were started at SW events or by founders, co-founders, or teams that met at a Startup Weekend. We are constantly asked for success stories and would love the opportunity to give you the recognition that your hard work deserves — we can only do this if we know who you are and are up-to-date on all the outstanding things that you are doing!
Once you fill out the survey below you will be added to our database of companies so we can contact you when we get requests from investors, press, or mentors.
Keep the momentum going at these upcoming events

What Is MVP And Why It Just Became Your New Religion
MVP stands for minimum viable product. Minimum – the least amount of work you can possible do with the resources you have and still achieve a desired result. Viable – functionality that allows users and possibly customers to understand and engage what you are doing. Product – the thing you service that will generate revenue.
Entrepreneur – someone who is able to leverage scarce resources to succeed where others cannot.
This post is an example of MVP.
