Launch Party 14 Returns Oct. 12
Launch Party gives you the opportunity to meet our city's brightest entrepreneurs, try their products, and celebrate everything that our innovation community has to offer. This isn't your typical networking event or trade show. It's a party designed to celebrate and showcase the rockstar entrepreneurs in our community.
Since 2010, over 100 innovative companies have launched products at the event, including rapidly growing teams like Jobber, Drivewyze, Poppy Barley, and Showbie.
Launch Party 13 was made possible thanks to the generous support of Parlee McLaws.
