It's startup weekend in Ann Arbor, the goal is to launch 10-12 new businesses

Looking to start a business this weekend? Well, on Friday, June 20, and Saturday, June 21, you just might have your shot. It's startup weekend in Ann Arbor and the recruits are looking for the motivated, the innovated, and the ambitious to start something up. The event will be held in the lower level of Liberty Square, 510 E. Washington.

Excerpt:

This isn’t a series of classes or speakers, it’s a bunch of people rolling up their sleeves and creating companies with the help of a facilitator.

Participants will get not just ownership in a company you help found (which is pretty cool in its own right), but new relationships with interesting, energetic, talented people and a new set of skills -- which you will be able to use in the future.

Organizers say the event is as much about building a startup-friendly community as it is about building companies.
