NESTI I/O is hosting a startup weekend for women on 2nd March, 2018. As name suggests the purpose of this event is to encourage women entrepreneurs to network with each other and to inspire young women aspiring to be entrepreneurs. A very exclusive event, as it appears from the details, aims to encourage dialogue and openness in working women.
What is in for you?
You will have the chance to network with like minded people, have access to seasoned entrepreneurs for guidance, have hands-on experience of how to create your own company, learn how to pitch your startup, meet the best investors, mentors, co-founders, and sponsors who are ready to help startups. Some startups even might have a chance to find financial support to turn their ideas into businesses . Trashit is one example from last Startup Weekend Karachi who went on to convert their idea into a business.
Who is participating?
So far, what we have known following startups will be participating in the event:
The event, though is for women, will have around 20% participation from successful men too. Besides, there are some speakers lined up for the event.
We think it’s a good initiative and if they manage to bring in the right participants, it can be really beneficial for women.
