= Steps Required To Bring Resource to Campus<br/> =
The Startup Weekend homepage provides a handy step-by-step guide to bringing their event to your city! Attendance at a previous startup weekend is a requirement for any prospective 'Organizers,' as Startup Weekend calls them.
An Organizer is responsible for organizing nearly the entire event from the ground up, from venue and food logistics to securing judges and coaches.
The largest barrier that must be overcome in order to bring Startup Weekend to your campus or city is the requirement for an Organizer to be a Startup Weekend alumni- that is, they must have previously attended a startup weekend. Access to such an event depends on the proximity of your campus to startup events and your willingness to make the journey to attend one - or to convince an alumni to come to you!
Once the hurdle of finding a suitable Organizer is cleared, a host will find a wealth of useful guides and resources conveniently compiled on the Startup Weekend homepage.
Amongst the resources, a few highlights include:
-Leadership and team building advice
-Target audience & potential areas to look for budding entreprenuers
-Financial information (planning, acquiring sponsors, etc..)
-Day-by-day guides to suggested event planning
