Startup Weekend Fredericksburg, part of the Startup Weekend global network, provides the opportunity for entrepreneurs to pitch their business idea and for those willing to share their expertise to participate on a team to help launch that idea by weekend’s end. Prizes are awarded by a panel of judges at Sunday evening’s final pitch.

Sponsors are needed for Fredericksburg’s 2015 event, Startup Weekend Fredericksburg Veterans Edition. It will be held November 13 – 15 at the Germanna Community College Workforce and Technology Center, 10000 Germanna Point Dr., Fredericksburg.

For information and to secure a sponsorship, please contact Matt Norris at [email protected] or 703-403-9865.
