Two days removed from the closing ceremony of the first ever Startup Weekend Cleveland, the planning committee would like to thank all of the sponsors and the attendees for their support.
Overall the event was a huge success. We sold out the event twice and raised more sponsor money than any other event in Startup Weekend history.
We wanted to post a quick recap on how things went to give you a feel for what people thought. Thank you to Adam Jusko for covering the Sunday night presentations and reviewing the event on his blog.

Additionally, we were featured on Channel 3 news 3-5 times over the weekend. Here is link to the story.

Lastly, JumpStart has a good paragraph on their blog about the event and a great quote from Clint..

Special thanks to Clint and Marc for their help.. we could not have done it without you..
