The fifth Minsk Startup Week will be held January 29-30, 2011

January 29-30, 2011 the fifth Minsk Startup Wieekend will take place.

The organizers decided to declare it, like last weekend, intersectoral, i.e. Projects will be presented from various sectors of the economy and business: IT, construction, manufacturing, services, energy and energy conservation, the media and others. Both ready-made, working projects and business ideas will be accepted for participation.


For authors of the projects, as well as for those who want to get a presentation about startup investments, a weekly free Startup School will work, within which the authors will be able, with the help of consultants, to refine their projects. More than 10 master classes and seminars from leading experts, as well as successful entrepreneurs, business owners, and investors are expected.
