Marc Nager (pronounced Naw-ger) is the CEO of Startup Weekend. Both a Swiss and US citizen, Marc has enjoyed an amazing 26 years enjoying the outdoors, pursuing seemingly risky endeavors, and traveling down multiple career paths.
With a degree in International Business from Chapman University in Southern California, Marc left his MBA program after the first semester to pursue new direction. Scratching his own itch to learn how to launch a startup, Marc found the opportunity to acquire Startup Weekend, LLC and to transform it into a non-profit with the help of newly formed co-founders Clint Nelsen and Franck Nouyrigat. Passionate and curious about the world of startups, Marc has found a way to help others pursue their ideas and dreams. Startup Weekend has landed him in over 60 cities around the world where he’s listened, observed, and helped hundreds of the earliest stage teams. Among others, his pursuits have garnered exposure in national media outlets such as Entrepreneur Magazine and Forbes.
