A great time was had by all at the first Project Skyway Bootcamp weekend, which was held this past Friday through Sunday at CoCo’s St. Paul location.
The weekend kicked off on Friday night with a mixer that brought together our 52 Project Skyway campers from the 25 companies along with our Project Skyway Initiators, Captains and local tech/entrepreneurial community.
The mixer was a fun evening bursting with energy and passion from all. The mixer was also a great way to set the tone for our campers as they set off on a weekend filled with many challenging and fun exercises to demonstrate to our selection committee why they should be one of the 10 finalists selected for the inaugural Project Skyway class beginning in August.
To get a taste of the 25 pitches our campers made this weekend, please check out this condensed version that Jeff Pesek of Tech.MN has put together.
