Startup Weekend Melbourne was a huge success! You guys killed it with your presentations and your entrepreneurship spirit that was shown throughout the weekend. We hope that it was beneficial to you and you would have either found your next co-founder, learn to articulate your ideas, learned how to validate and build your idea and maybe quite your day job.

With and event of this scale there are a whole heap of people working on things and many in the background that contributed to such an amazing event. First I’d like to thank our local sponsors Optus, Xero, Flippa, Amazon Web Services, DesignCrowd, and not to forget York Butter Factory for allowing us to make their awesome space our home for the weekend. They not only provided significant finances to run the event but also dedication and volunteering their time.

I’d also like to give a shout out to Darcy Naunton, Co-organizer of Startup Weekend Melbourne. Without his efforts in securing the great list of mentors and judges, we would have not had such talented and dedicated bunch of people to give advice and guidance to the teams.

Next up is the talented bunch of mentors and judges who helped out to nurture the teams and provide support all throughout the weekend.  Hopefully everyone got to meet few inspiring people during the weekend.
