Start-Up City: Miami

9:00 AM-6:00 PM
Join us for our annual trip down the coast to Start-Up City: Miami, where we will highlight South Florida’s high-growth (and high-profit) innovation while exploring the emerging models of entrepreneurship taking root in cities around the U.S.
As a beachside business gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, Miami is a cosmopolitan city with high ambitions in rocketing emerging markets. And those ambitions are charged by changes at home, where tech is transforming traditional industries and talent increasingly clusters in cities reinventing their brands.
With Miami’s high-profile growth as our backdrop, we’ll ask: how can cities maximize their homegrown strengths and small business values while attracting the outside resources to compete with their bigger peers?
Interactive sessions will match local speakers with urban leaders from the national stage for real-time idea sharing in areas like:
- Finding the tools to scale
- Attracting and retaining talent
- Building creative communities
- Negotiating investment opportunities
Now in its third year, Start-Up City: Miami has established itself as more than a daylong program. It is a much-anticipated convening that fosters new and unexpected partnerships within the startup community offers entrepreneurs how-tos for new venture growth and provides an opportunity to step back and assess this growing and vibrant community.
