<span style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family: lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif">From 3daystartup.org:</span></span>
<span style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family: lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif"><span style="color: rgb(100, 100, 100); line-height: 21px">The idea of 3 Day Startup is simple: start tech companies over the course of three days. We rent work space for an entire weekend, recruit 45 student participants from a wide range of backgrounds, cater food and drinks, and bring in top-notch entrepreneurs and investors. The participants pick the best ideas for startups during the Friday brainstorming session and deliver prototypes and investor pitches on Sunday night.</span></span></span>
<span style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family: lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif">3 Day Startup really focuses on learning by doing. Through the interdisciplinary teams, you go out and talk to real customers, and act in a microcosm of what the start-up world feels like.</span></span>
<span style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family: lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif">Note on equity:</span></span>
<span style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family: lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif"><span style="color: rgb(100, 100, 100); line-height: 21px">If your local organizing team decides to use the legal structure, than the 3DS non profit takes 0.5% of '''dilutable '''equity in companies that are formed based around ideas that are presented during the final pitches. The purpose of this is to protect ideas and founders by establishing a clear chain of legal ownership for the ideas. The 3DS organizers never profit or make any money from any work you do.</span></span></span>
