Told you we'd be back. We're set to go.

This party was originally scheduled in July. We had last minute logistical issues and did what we entrepreneurs do, ADAPT and PIVOT. We're now hosting our Late Summer/Back to Fall Party and Startup Showcase.

Join us, let your hair down, blow off some steam, enjoy great food and drink, enjoy our 3rd annual STARTUP SHOWCASE, and get a sneak peak of the new Columbia Gateway INNOVATION CENTER. A beautiful 50,000 sqft facility that is the new home of the Howard County Economic Development, Howard Tech Council, and our founding partner, Maryland Center for Entrepreneurship.

We have six rock star local startups who will be strutting their stuff throughout the event while getting invaluable practice pitching their companies in small and large group formats.  The event will culminate with announcements of the winners and award of some high value prizes.

Join mid-Maryland's movers, shakers, investors, influencers, fellow entrepreneurs, founders, startups, emerging, and high growth companies as we have some fun and see 6 of the best and brightest local startups compete for exposure and great prizes.

Congratulations to our six rock star startups.

We have a phenomenal sponsorship opportunity for companies who want to be in front of 1,800+ passionate and creative entrepreneurs, founders, startups, emerging, and high growth companies, investors, educators, and influencers seeking to solve huge problems using innovation and technology.  Sign on and be a party and showcase sponsor and be our sponsor for the balance of 2019 free.  

We're seeking forward thinking organizations interested in moving our region's entrepreneurship community forward.  We have two opportunities available.
