Happy Thanksgiving

A fitting day to give Thanks to the fantastic team at Microsoft and our partners in the US that attended 10 Startup Weekends during GEW – in Boston, NYC, Orange County, Las Vegas, Seattle, San Francisco, Princeton and New Haven, Denver and DC.

 

Here are a few snippets from the team:

 

Check out the Las Vegas pitch (video) and the buzz on the twitter hashtag. In Seattle the winning team used Kinect and tapeworms! Read more on Geekwire and the twitter hashtag #seattlesw. Thanks to Steve, Joel and the gang for supporting these.

 

From Harvard iLab in Boston, a great post on Startup Weekend: Harvard Startup Scramble – A 48 Hour Test-Drive of the iLab (including a shout out to Abby and Walter, our fab team at Microsoft). The weekend event also featured in BostInnovation.

 

On the other coast, Kevin was in Orange County and pointed us to this video with coverage of the weekend and the twitter hashtag has more.

 

More to come from Sumit and the guys in NYC when they’ve come up for air!

 

Thanks again to a great team for supporting @StartupWeekend GEW USA.
