The Inaugural Asheville Startup Games
Startups Competing against each other for charity…and bragging rights.
A new addition to Asheville Entrepreneurship Week
How it works
This is a strategic initiative
to encourage the mixing and mingling of not only founders, but their teams. And to also benefit local charities. Here’s how it works, founders build a team, choose a charity, and pony up $200 (that’s the entry fee, and it’s tax deductible).
Teams compete all afternoon
The winning startup’s charity of choice will receive ALL the donations.
The top team gets a trophy
Top 3 teams win medals. Individual game winners win medals. And the opportunity to earn $1600 for a charity of their choice.
Each game will run a double-elimination bracket
Points will be given out to the top 3 winners. We’ll compile all the points at the end of the games to crown a winner
