Explained simply
Founder summits bring early-stage company founders together with investors, advisers and other people who work in technology businesses. They offer a chance to learn how companies find customers, raise money, build teams and grow.
TechCrunch is a technology news company that runs events for this audience. Its Founder Summit programme includes a Build Stage on practical business topics and an Impact Stage on product development, growth and leadership, with founders and investors sharing their experience.
The event is planned for Boston’s SoWa Power Station, with sessions as well as small-group discussions and informal networking. Those conversations can help founders and investors exchange advice and make useful connections beyond the formal talks.
