If you don't know what StartupBus is, read on.
What is StartupBus?
StartupBus is an exercise in time, resource, and comfort-constrained creativity - it's a hackathon on a bus moving at 100km/hour for 3 days across the continent. It pushes people past their limits, and finds greatness on the other side.
Why Do It?
It's a life changing trip that has seen people step off the bus and into incubators, new jobs, a new startup, or just a new way of looking at life. The competition a shared experience that has brought together a community of truly amazing people in countries around the world. StartupBus represents a network of amazing entrepreneurs, investors, journalists, and builders that is genuine and celebrates the do-ers in life. Also, a cross-country hackathon road trip makes for an epic story.
How Do I Apply?
Tell us why you're awesome and what you bring to the community. The bus is stacked with do-ers (mostly coders and designers who can implement) but if you bring something unique, then we want you. In the past, we've had lawyers, environmental policy wonks, students, and retirees who all brought something special and make the community stronger for it.
Apply now- applications are accepted on a rolling basis and there are a limited number of seats.
When Do We Leave?
StartupBus rolls from March 2 to March 6, 2014 and ultimately lands in Austin, TX in time for the biggest tech conference in the U.S. From there, you get yourself back however and whenever you want.
