Johannesburg Startup Picnic To Bring Entrepreneurs Together

Picture this: You are watching your favourite soapie and a popular TV advert pops up encouraging 'goal getters' to presser, pusha, phanda.

While goal getters don't usually get the opportunity to mix and mingle, there will always be that golden moment which needs to be grabbed with both hands.

Jo'burg entrepreneurs are been presented with just the perfect opportunity to network, connect and learn with the return of the Johannesburg Startup Picnic.

Get your pen and scribble this date down. Its all happening on the 2nd of May 2015 at the luxurious Lido Hotel from 9am to 8pm. And judging by the success of last years event that was graced by 30 year old billionaire Irfan Pardesi, experiential marketer Busta Madiba and the inspirational Puseletso Modimogale, this years event is going to be a real knockout.

Startup Picnic is a series of casual, informal and fun networking events for established and aspiring entrepreneurs. It’s an opportunity to unwind, make friends, get active, play games, absorb information and tie relationships. Startup Picnic attracts various entrepreneurship stakeholders and organisations, more specifically, angel investors, venture capitalists, accelerators and incubators.

In a press release sent by the organisers, the day will be kick started with a brief breakfast talk at 10 am, thereafter the picnic will commence. Expect, braai, music, games (5 aside soccer, sack race, table tennis, table soccer), networking and exhibitions.
