I have been to two events in NYC. They were great for me to learn and netwotk with people with similar interests. I liked it enough that I now volunteer to help organize these events. There is a great balance between ui/ux, developers and business/marketing types. Also is a gpod way to vet an idea quickly. Theleanstartupmachine.com is another similar event, more focused on the lean startup methods.

I would have said it's more focused on tightly customer development from my experience, despite the name. Of course, that's a part of lean startup methodology, but I tend to associated lean startup with many of the development techniques such as continuous deployment and rapid A/B testing which isn't necessarily feasible over the weekend (although I've seen some pull it off well.)
