Podcast #30 - Startup Weekend
Michael Gruen and Andrew Hyde of Startup Weekend give us the scoop on what it takes to hyper-accelerate the development of a startup company with a room full of strangers in order to launch a product from scratch in a weekend.

The company we started is launching as we speak.
