What is Startup Weekend Damascus?
Startup Weekend Damascus is an intense 54-hour event where local entrepreneurs, developers, designers,
marketers, product managers, startup enthusiasts and anyone interested in building a business and help the
local community will come together to share ideas, form teams, and launch startups.
Why Are you Doing This?
The event aims to spot the light on entrepreneurship and its importance for the Syrian youth to create their
own opportunities, control their destiny in an uncertain future and unleash their creativity in the time their
country needs it most. Most importantly entrepreneurship is the hope and key factor for the Syrian youth to
contribute proactively and shape the future of their country.
Organizing Startup Weekend in Damascus, in the context of the intense and hard situations currently in Syria
is a challenge in itself. Yet the importance of the event to draw the attention of local and global community
to the untapped talent and creativity of the Syrian youth makes this challenge worth to be undertaken. One
aspect of the country that has not been destroyed is the creativity and willingness of its youth to build a better
future of development and prosperity. Please help us by joining and being part of this great event!
Who Are You?
We are a group of Syrian youths enthusiast about startups and entrepreneurship, we aim to organize Startup
Weekend event in the country, as a part of a larger vision of bootstrapping an entrepreneurial ecosystem led
by youth challenging the hard circumstances.

What is truer than a tale of passion? What is more influential than a tale of passion? And what is more
stronger than youth in our globe?

Youth have been sidelined for ages, they are not just our present nor a big majority. Youth are the future and
definitely our change makers.
We decided to create a platform where youth will be able to tell their #TalesOfPassion and let the world
shown through their eyes.

- TedxYouthJhez salon " Collaborative communities "
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people
together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to
spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx,
where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the
TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).
