YallaStartup is bringing StartupWeekend for the first time to the Middle East. StartupWeekend is a famous event that takes place in 54 cities. It's a very handson event that encourages out of the box creative thinking and startup creation. The idea is very simple, in brief it starts on Friday hosting a group of motivated developers, product, marketing, graphic and business guys and girls together, get them to team up and decide on an idea, code and deliver a prototype on Sunday. During the weekend there will be fun events and exciting short talks by experts. A number of teams from StartupWeekend in the US actually went on to become real companies and raise funding.
What's also very exciting is that the weekend will also be open to participants from Syria and Jordan and YallaStartup will be chartering bus rides in a cool set up that they call "Geeks on a Bus".
