Feb. 20, 2014 - PRLog -- The New York City chapter of 3 Day Startup (3DS NYC), a global non-profit organization that provides mentorship and resources to budding entrepreneurs, is now accepting applications for its Spring 2014 immersion event taking place April 25-27 in New York City.

40 applicants from various industry and experience backgrounds will be accepted into the intensive three-day program, during which participants work with professional mentors to develop the group’s strongest startup ideas and pitch their prototypes to a panel of investors.

3DS NYC encourages passionate individuals with a great startup idea, including university students with an entrepreneurial drive to apply at http://nyc.3daystartup.org/apply/. The organization is especially interested in diversifying the applicant pool for its 2014 program. Lead Organizer Desiree Frieson notes, "3DS NYC has always been accessible to the diverse communities of New York City, but this year we will be partnering with community groups, workforce development organizations and local government agencies to reach some of the more underrepresented groups in technology such as minorities and women." The deadline for applications is March 28.

3 Day Startup NYC is also dedicated to maintaining its spirit of mentorship beyond the three-day program. This year, the organization plans to enhance its participant experience by adding a "startup walking tour," which will include post-event workshops at successful startup headquarters throughout the city.

To date, 3DS alumni have launched over 41 tech and social enterprise companies and secured $14.5 million in funding.

For more information, or to get involved as a sponsor or mentor, contact nyc@3daystartup.org or 718-598-5294.
