Tel: 13350490599Learn a new skill. Meet awesome people. Find a mentor. Build a real product in a weekend. My first Startup Weekend three years ago was pretty life-changing (at the very least, it has me working on a SW in Chengdu!)
As an additional benefit, you get to hang out with Dieter and I! Admittedly, for some of you that may not be a good reason 🙂
Also June 20-22 is Chengdu’s first Startup Weekend (see this post for more info).
Website is here: http://chengdu.startupweekend.org/
Registration is here: http://www.huodongxing.com/go/swchengdu-2014
Charlie et al,
As an additional update, we are targeting at least 50-75, but we are allowing up to 100 participants for the event (we hours ago just confirmed additional workspace when 天府新谷 Thinkzone just officially signed on as a sponsor).
These 100 spots are limited by category of participant to ensure there’s a good mix of people and talents:
- At most ~33 Developers/Programmers
- At most ~ 34 Business/Marketing people
- At most ~33 Designers
As with most Startup Weekends, the Business/Marketing tickets are selling the fastest and over half are now sold. So, if you want to register as Business/Marketing… register and pay ASAP. Altogether, we have registered just under 40 last time I looked.
Generally speaking, Startup Weekends are really awesome events for meeting and connecting with new people from different industry and with varied skill-sets. I’d encourage you to invite your friends… and if you all end up working together or on separate teams, it’ll be a good time!
See you at Startup Weekend Chengdu!

@adrienr: It depends based on the data. From what I’ve seen this tends to still be an open issue on a lot of government data. I’d encourage you to join Open Data China (http://opendatachina.com/) and seek out answers via the google group. Are there any sets of data you’re currently looking at and curious about?
@everyone: For a meetup in the next few weeks, how about we do Tuesday, March 25th, meeting up at 7pm. We can do dinner and talk more on open data/innovation and next steps. If interested, please RSVP by sending me an email at [email protected] to make sure we end up with a table with enough seats.

I don’t know what happened, but I submit a response earlier today… hmm… personal problems. Anyway… :-/
@adrienr: Feel free to be in touch. I’d be happy to help any way I can and would love to meet up some time soon. My email address is [email protected]
@Al the Dead: Let me know if you’d like more info. I had an actual response to you in my dearly departed earlier draft, and would still be happy to talk more on some simple real world examples.@everyone else: For anyone who’s interested or curious, I’d like to host a get together in a couple weeks to talk more about open data in person to see what people might be interested in. I’m thinking the evening of 3/18, 3/19, or 3/20. If you’re interested, email me at [email protected]
