Google for Entrepreneurs
- albumedia 14y agoNice set of useful info and resources
- ruycer 14y agoThis is a nice set of resources. Does anyone know how is behind this initiative in Google? I am doing my PhD research on the startup ecosystem in Mexico and it would be interested in talking with them about some of my findings.
- d_p 14y agoHi! I'm also a Startup Weekend employee. You might check out http://startupweekend.mx/ http://startupweekend.mx/ and say hi to our colleagues Gustavo and Melina. They may also have some insights into the Mexican entrepreneurial ecosystem.
- _pius 14y agoYou should talk with Mary Himinkool. http://www.googleventures.com/team/mary-himinkool http://www.googleventures.com/team/mary-himinkool
- ruycer 14y agoThanks _pius and d_p for your responses. I will talk to the folks of Google Ventures. I have been following closely the development of Startup Weekend in Mexico, and wrote research paper on that. Gustavo and Melina are great :)
- zacharycohn 14y agoI work for Startup Weekend, one of the projects/resources listed here. If anyone has any questions, go ahead and let me know and I'll do my best to answer!
- mwww 14y agoWhich known startups were born on a Startup Weekend?
- vrikhter 14y agoZaarly
- mikeleeorg 14y ago3 edtech startups came out of Startup Weekend that I know of; there may have been more: + ClassDojo - from Startup Weekend UK + Demo Lesson (now Tioki) - from Startup Weekend EDU SF + Edcanvas - from Startup Weekend EDU Seattle
- zacharycohn 14y agoRemember that our focus isn't to make 15 new startups in a city over a weekend, our focus is really education. We believe in "experiential education," or that the best way to learn something is by doing it. That being said, many real companies have come out of Startup Weekend (and many many more have come out of people meeting or working together at Startup Weekend). But, a quick list off the top of my head: Zaarly, Foodspotting, Rover, Tioki (formerly DemoLesson), Tapin.tv (YC S12), LaunchRock, Scanadu.
- bryanh 14y agoZapier (YCS12) was started at a Columbia, MO startup weekend last year. A nonzero number of people have heard of us.
- zacharycohn 14y agoAwesome! I'm not even sure if we have. You should shoot me an email, zachary@startupweekend.org, and tell me your story!
- mdhayes 14y agoPostPod from Startup Weekend Glasgow are still going - http://www.postpod.co.uk/ http://www.postpod.co.uk/
- fromhet 14y agoSeeing this made me really realize that Google is huge. Huger than I could imagine. I remember vividly when I first saw Google.com. I think it was at the end of the millennia. They got bigger in small increments, but now they are enormous.

- mej10 14y agoWow, wish I had found out about this earlier! I would've loved to visit Google Chapel Hill, but the event is today and I am headed out of town!
- blaines 14y agoAnd the 1871 site is down... Grr.
- turoczy 14y agoI am a cofounder of PIE, a startup accelerator that is part of the Google for Entrepreneurs program. If you have any questions about the program, please let me know. (And thanks to zacharycohn of Startup Weekend for the nudge.)
- smagch 14y agoDoes Google for Entrepreneurs program cover only accelerator/incubator which google is a part of sponsor? How can I approach to sponsors if I found a accelerator in my hometown?
- turoczy 14y agoWe were lucky to partner with Google last year, as well -- before this program was formalized. They were very open to exploring options with our (then) relatively new program. I'd recommend contacting them directly.
- leak 14y agoAre know of any google related events in LA? I found a mention of one on Sept 25th but no more info about location or time.
- PeterMcCanney 14y agoThe Google for Entrepreneurs, Dublin, Ireland event seems closed to general enquires. Any chance of a more open event?
