At Capital Thought, your project is sponsored by a founder—Jason Cohen or Joshua Baer. Both have started three tech companies each—writing the software, devising the marketing, leading them to millions of dollars in annual revenue, and negotiating successful exits.

Startup Games unites high-growth tech companies in friendly competition to build great cultures while giving back to their local communities. Our vision is to have the top 20 startup communities in the world compete in an Olympics-style event crowning an annual world champion, with the goal of raising $1,000,000 per year for charity. The Games: 16 tech startups compete in ten events for a day of networking, fun and philanthropy. Each company plays for the charity of their choice, and at the end of the event, every charity walks away with money for their organization, with the largest portion of the pot going to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place teams. Find out how to bring the Startup Games to your city at http://startupgames.com
