IPitch is an online community which helps Australian startups and investors stay connected

Dutch entrepreneurs Patrick Driessen (Founder at Seed Accelerator, 8P Capital and Dutchdown) and Bart Jellema (Founder at Startup Australia and Tjoos) have joined forces to organise StartupCamp weekends in Sydney and Melbourne.

Sydney StartupCamp will start on Friday evening Oct. 8th and ends on Sunday afternoon Oct. 10th. Please see: http://sydneystartupcamp.eventbrite.com/

Melbourne StartupCamp will start on Friday evening Nov. 12th and ends on Sunday afternoon Nov. 14th. Please see: http://melbournestartupcamp.eventbrite.com/

Although most of you are already working very hard on your current business venture(s), we would like to recommend you sign up for our StartupCamp because it will bring you a lot of new skills, knowledge, experience, insights, valuable relationships, fun and..... fresh inspiration!

Our StartupCamp is no ordinary startup event! It's a high-performance event where like-minded entrepreneurs gather for a weekend of company creation: a concentrated, intensive hands-on event where you start with brainstorming for a new idea on Friday evening and by Saturday evening you can literally be in business ready to generate your first lead or customer. On Sunday the grand final will include pitching your new venture to a panel of professional investors and business leaders!

Just don’t think it’s just for developers. It's marketing maestros, design gurus, business development wizards, financial masters, legal geniuses, and the specialists of startups – the jack of all trades coming together as one unit, creating a harmony that can only be envied by the corporate world!

StartupCamp is exciting, hands-on, interactive, entrepreneurial, full of innovation, fun and fast moving: to accelerate your growth and... your business success!
