<aside> 💡 Even though UpStart is in-person, the participant’s platform for the weekend is Discord. It will be used for communications and for certain activities. Please make sure you have created a discord profile with your full name as your username. We will also use Updash as a submission platform for your projects!

For judges, please use the exec’s Google Chat for a more streamlined communication.

You should have received an invitation link for Discord. If you have any issues you can contact us via our email: [email protected]

Make sure you’re on all of these platforms to not miss out!
