Vancouver's First "Young Co-Founders Wanted" Speed-dating session

2010-03-03 19:00
Location: 
Toyo Sushi, 2211 Cambie Street, Vancouver, BC V5Z 2T5

On March 3, 2010 student entrepreneurs from across the city will be meeting to fuse their awesome business ideas with equally awesome talent!

Throw in some sushi, drinks & a quick chat from experienced entrepreneur, UCLA Alumni & founder of Silicon Valley startup Viralogy.com Yukai Chou, and welcome to the Vancouver's First "Young Co-Founders Wanted" Speed-dating session.

Unlike other networking events for entrepreneurs, the Young Co-Founders Wanted (YCW) Meetup group is focused on the needs of student or young entrepreneurs interested in running startup companies. Whether at the ideas or early-stage, YCF is aimed at being an extremely simple but effective way for student entrepreneurs across the city to meet.

Tickets are $5 (9 spots left as of Friday, February 26); ticket price includes sushi appetizers & cover. The first 10 students will be entered to win a prize package of "2 Hours Workspace Time" from the Network Hub.

This Event Is For:

  • Student entrepreneurs looking for startup talent
  • Students interested in working on a startup
  • Early-stage companies looking for talented student

Why YCW?

  • Because many students and young entrepreneurs have ideas but don't know how to implement them.
  • Because crazy coders, ruby ninjas, and amazing designers exist and want good ideas to work on.
  • Because there is no structured forum to connect young people who really want to start companies.
  • Because there is no easy way for early-stage startups to find student interns or talent.

Be sure to register now as tickets will start going fast!
