The Hub of the Entrepreneurial Universe

#SBW2024

Five days. 100+ sessions. 250+ speakers. 7000+ connections.

One location: Suffolk University.

Startup Boston Week (SBW) is back at Suffolk University. During the week of September 9-13, thousands of members of Boston's startup community—from founders and investors to mentors and advisors, from serial entrepreneurs to the startup curious—will gather and hear from more than 250 speakers in 100-plus sessions organized into 15 different tracks.

The weeklong event brings together thought leaders and luminaries from the Greater Boston and New England startup community and features events that connect and empower entrepreneurs, startup employees, investors, and mentors. Panelists will explore the ins and outs of funding, the legal challenges of being an entrepreneur, the potential pitfalls of success, and the unexpected dividends of failure.

“We are excited to build upon the success of hosting SBW 2023 with an even bigger, more exciting SBW 2024,” said Professor Chaim Letwin, Carol Sawyer Parks Endowed Chair and Director of the Entrepreneurship Program and Center for Entrepreneurship, and Associate Professor of Management and Entrepreneurship. “This event highlights that Suffolk is a beacon for entrepreneurship appropriately sitting atop Beacon Hill. This year, our students are even more involved in the activities and our community is excited to learn from and share our knowledge with our community’s startup ecosystem.”

There will also be a podcast stage, career fair, multiple networking events, and the return of the “Startup Crawl,” with scores of attendees streaming out into Boston to visit “startup-friendly” worksites within walking distance of the Suffolk campus.

The entire week is free. Register here.
