I'm just not seeing that in the article.
- startupdiscuss 9y agoHaven't you heard of startup weekend? Please look it up: https://startupweekend.org/ https://startupweekend.org/
- LyndsySimon 9y agoIt's probably hit my radar at some point, but honestly hackathons just aren't my scene unless I'm going for work.
- jasonlotito 9y agoIt's made very clear in the article. That's the point of SW. It is voluntary. It's understood that you are sharing everything. Both ways.
- LyndsySimon 9y ago> It's understood that you are sharing everything. Both ways. This was my preconception, based on the hackathons I've attended. That also doesn't fit well with the article - it seems the author was expecting it to be their company. In the absence of a prior discussion or agreement, I would expect it to be an equal partnership.
- jasonlotito 9y agoNo, not at all. There is no equal partnership. They are under no obligation to bring you on board. You are free to go your own way, and so are they. God, if there was an implied equal partnership, that would be bad.
