CenterState CEO to Host Startup Workshop at the Tech Garden

CenterState CEO will be hosting a workshop designed to help entrepreneurs with the start up of their businesses. “Startup Weekend” will be held from Nov. 4 to Nov. 6 at the Syracuse Technology Garden. CenterState describes it as a workshop where developers, designers, marketers, product managers, and innovators can share ideas, form teams, build products, and launch companies.

The upcoming workshop is the latest in a series of Startup Weekend’s that CenterState has hosted worldwide since 2007. CenterState states that its events have helped create 2,400 startup companies with thirty-six percent of them lasting longer than three months.

In the eyes of CenterState, the workshop has multiple benefits. Managing director for emerging business portfolio Mitchell Patterson said, “Beyond the possibility of adding some new companies to the local economy, participants will gain exposure to all aspects of starting a business and make connections with people in industries.” Patterson went on to say that CenterState hopes to conduct a workshop every six months in the Syracuse area.
