2013-01-23 19:47:02 - StartUp Weekend-Saratoga Location Announced for March 1-3, 2013

Local entrepreneur and event organizer, Robert Manasier, today announced the 2013 location for StartUp Weekend-Saratoga (www.saratoga.startupweekend.org) at the TEC-SMART Campus at Saratoga Technology + Energy Park® (STEP®), 345 Hermes Road, Malta.

“This is a perfect location for our event. Our mission is aligned with TEC-SMART, providing resources to the startup community locally. An added benefit is the infrastructure is already on site so that added services do not need to be brought in. Diamond Point Advisory Group and Capital Region Entrepreneur Group led the search and provided the resources to source and locate our options. This is an excellent place to hold our inaugural event” Robert Manasier shared.

The early response from participants, coaches and sponsors has been robust. We

are still in need of added sponsors for food, beverages, swag items, office supplies (especially whiteboards/easels) and in-kind services for the grand prizes, as well as, monetary sponsors.

Claudia Iannuzzo (CEO, Pereg Ventures), a judge for the event, comments: “Smart investors (like smart entrepreneurs) are always looking to learn from, and engage with entrepreneurs, other investors and future business partners. Startup Weekend-Saratoga is a phenomenal opportunity to do exactly that, especially with the collaborative and open environment the organizers have created.”
