Why Attend Startup Weekend?
Because you don’t need to wait for “someday” to start your startup.
At Startup Weekend, you’ll get the time, team, and tools to turn your idea into something real — in just 54 hours. Whether you’re testing a concept, building your network, or learning what it takes to launch, this is where you start.
Justice + AI: Reimagining Law for the AI Era
The legal industry is roughly the size of the airline industry. Almost everyone touches it, and almost nobody is happy with it. While the industries around it have transformed over the last few decades, law has stayed largely the same. That is finally changing, and AI is at the center of it.
The tools built over the next few years will decide whether a tenant can fight an eviction, whether a small business owner can draft a contract without a $400 an hour phone call, and whether courts buried in backlogs can actually function. That is an enormous opportunity, and it is one of the most consequential opportunities to get right.
This November, we are bringing builders, designers, lawyers, operators, students, and the legally curious together for one weekend in San Diego to take a swing at it. You do not need to know law. You need to want to build something that matters.
What is Startup Weekend?
Startup Weekend is a high-energy, hands-on event where people come together to launch startups — in just three days.
You don’t need a team. You don’t even need an idea. Just bring your skills, an open mind, and a readiness to build something real.
Over one weekend, you’ll:
- Pitch (or join) a startup idea
- Build a team
- Validate, design, and prototype
- Demo your MVP to a panel of judges and the startup community
Whether you’re a developer, designer, student, marketer, or dreamer — you’re invited.
