Indianapolis – Startup Weekend, an intense 54-hour brainstorming and business-building event, has announced its 2010 speaker lineup, full of local entrepreneurs. Indy Startup Weekend will be held in Indianapolis June 4-6, hosted by the Purdue Research Park at AmeriPlex – Indianapolis.
Saturday afternoon, team and personal effectiveness coach Deseri Garcia, owner of Vida Aventura, will speak on team building. Sunday morning, business attorney Brandt Voight of Bingham McHale, LLP will present on business entity formation. Finally, Kristian Andersen, owner of KA+A, will speak on designing a startup.
“Indianapolis is a great town for startups,” said Lorraine Ball, a member of the planning committee. “We’re thrilled to have such a strong lineup of business owners to encourage our fledgling entrepreneurs.”
During Startup Weekends, a diverse group of developers, business managers, startup enthusiasts, marketing gurus, graphic artists and more gather to create and develop innovative new products, projects, and companies.
