Good morning,
I assume requested the permission for usage of the name Startup Weekend from the respective owner of the brand?
The rights for the name Startup Weekend is with the folks from startupweeked.org. Having run a couple of Startup Weekends myself, I suggest you request first their respective permission before making use of their brand name for your event. Second, making use of the Startup Weekend brand requires you to use their logo as well as that of the Kaufmann Foundation.
Hi Christian,
Thanks for this comment! Will coordinate with them and for the meantime, we will change the name of the event.
