Start Up Liverpool - The Inaugural Event for GEC2012

Start Up Liverpool is the inaugural event of GEC 2012, so guaranteed to be under the spotlight from both visiting international delegates and local/national media.
 
This morning I received an update at Liverpool Vision about some of the many exciting things happening during GEC2012 (http://www.twitter.com/gec2012).  One of these updates was about "Start Up Liverpool".  This unique event takes place over the weekend from 6pm on Friday 9th March to 9pm on Sunday 11th March in Liverpool City Centre. There is already a stellar line up of mentors and judges, business experts, prizes, sponsors, caterers and a great venue, all that is needed now are another 100 people attendees. Here is the website for Start Up Liverpool which gives an overview of the event:

To summarize, Startup Liverpool is looking for people of any age with business ideas (any sector) or those keen to get involved in an exciting new start up venture. Start Up Liverpool is a  practical, cost effective (only £54 - which includes 5 meals) and integral element of GEC 2012; one with real legacy for Liverpool too - the aim is to spin off businesses in the course of the weekend. This event can be repeated a regular intervals in Liverpool moving forward - it's about collaboration and connecting enterprising people.
