Today we announced that Techstars has acquired UP Global, which includes Startup Weekend and many other fantastic events and programs. Startup Weekend is my absolute favorite global event for entrepreneurship. The end result was an expanded community of entrepreneurs here in Boulder, many of whom I still keep in touch with today.
