Whether entrepreneurs found companies, find a cofounder, meet someone new, or learn a skill far outside their usual 9-to-5, everyone is guaranteed to leave the event better prepared to navigate the chaotic but fun world of startups.

This is only the third ever Startup Weekend in Buffalo and its popularity has already outgrown its original meeting space at Medaille College and is now being hosted on the UB North Campus at Davis Hall.

Instead of a cash award,  prize packages will be awarded to first, second, and third place finishers that include a range of web, financial, legal, marketing, and business development services.
