The purpose of Start-Up Weekends is to provide a safe-space for students, staff and researchers to test the viability of their business ideas. It is an excellent opportunity to learn about ideas from right across the campus, build interim teams and thrash out ideas so that we can help you find viable business opportunities. We will give you the concepts you need to understand to start a business and our experienced mentors will help you over the three days to test, develop and pitch your ideas. At the end of the weekend, you will be provided feedback and advice on how to take your idea to the next level.
