Two days from now, Tech Crunch Founder Summit, presented by Fidelity Private Shares, brings founders, investors, and operators together at So Wa Power Station to discuss building companies from Boston and beyond. November 4 is the final day to secure passes before ticket prices increase and group discounts disappear. Practical scaling insights will be shared across breakout and roundtable sessions.
A Boston company that became much bigger than Boston. Steve Fredette, President, Co-founder, and Director of Toast, brings one of the city's most recognizable founder stories to the stage. Toast's journey offers a look at finding customers, developing product-market fit, scaling a company, and continuing to evolve after the original idea succeeds.
It is proof that founders don't have to leave Boston to build a company with national and global reach. Chase Garbarino, CEO and Co-founder of Hq O, will tackle the geography question directly. He has built from Boston for more than a decade, raised significant capital, and expanded internationally without relocating to a traditional West Coast hub.
His conversation will dig into the advantages, disadvantages, and realities of building where the startup playbook wasn't necessarily written. Founder Summit isn't only about the people onstage. Braindate networking makes it easier to find conversations around shared challenges.
Roundtables bring founders and VCs closer together around specific problems. Official Side Events extend relationships beyond the event itself across the Boston startup hub. For founders building in Boston, the ecosystem is already here.
Doors open at So Wa Power Station for meaningful connections and growth opportunities. Register now to lock in current ticket savings before prices increase.
