Photos from Youth Startup Weekend - Winter 2018
Traboule Software is proud to be a sponsor of the Co+Hoots Foundation's Youth Startup Weekend events. I attended the most recent one as a mentor, and took photos of the incredible collaboration happening all over Co+Hoots. This is my quick review of the event, in numbers and photos.
The Numbers:
- Nearly 50 students participated in the 3rd Youth Startup Weekend
- More than 50 mentors, volunteers and speakers from the community showed up across the 3 days to help make this event a success
- The students pitched more than 20 ideas on Friday night
- Students and mentors voted to narrow down the ideas, and formed 9 teams
- 5 students came all the way from Toronto, Canada just for this event!
- The 9 teams worked together in less than 72 hours to put together a 3 minute pitch about their business
If this sounds like something you want to be a part of, follow the Co+Hoots Foundation on twitter.
