With zero budget and no preparation, twenty like-minded strangers have set themselves the challenge of going from conception to production in a single weekend. From veteran entrepreneurs to cubicle-dwellers, coders to marketers, this new breed of Australian innovators are showing the world that starting a company is easier now than ever before.

Tomorrow, the brand new businesses marketbeagle, bitofpluck and iSportster will launch live to the public. What are they?

• marketbeagle.com tracks success in marketing campaigns through easy-to-use data capture and analysis tools. marketbeagle are committed to helping businesses achieve their goals through giving them a better understanding of where their marketing budget is going and how hard it's working for them.

• bitofpluck.com is a web and mobile service that connects users with people they would never otherwise meet, wherever they are. Using sophisticated matching technology, bitofpluck connects people immediately in the same location for a an interesting conversation or a moment of inspiration.

"It's really cool to see the energy and resourcefulness of all the teams. This is a great example of what's possible when you take a bunch of talented people and give them a real challenge" said Startup Camp Chief Instigator Bart Jellema.
