I actually went to my first Startup Weekend this year. It's interesting to read about what goes into making it happen.

I definitely want to go to another SW. Does anyone know how many lasting companies actually make it out of these events?

Actually launch a business: Over 36% of Startup Weekend startups are still going strong after 3 months. Roughly 80% of participants plan on continuing working with their team or startup after the weekend. - Susie
I actually came to ask the same question as hnncl... I thought it was something like 30% of SW teams that end up incorporating, but I can't remember where heard that figure.

Its awesome that you actually launched a business from it. Congrats!!
