On Friday, all participants are welcomed to pitch their startup ideas. Teams organically form around the top ideas, as determined by popular vote, and then it is a 54-hour frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation. The weekend culminates on Sunday with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback.</span></span>
