Two days of startup showcases tell the story of innovation in the Commonwealth
Join us this April at the EVOLVE Conference during the 13th Annual Tom Tom Festival—a gathering of trailblazers shaping the future of technology, entrepreneurship, and beyond.
Tracks on Technology (Thurs. April 17) and Entrepreneurship (Fri. April 18) will highlight groundbreaking startups pushing the boundaries of innovation. Showcase Sessions — featuring rapid-fire, 5-minute talks — will explore transformative new technologies and the insights they unlock. These are not pitches but glimpses into the future, shared by founders building the next big thing. Stick around after each session to connect with angel and institutional investors in a dynamic networking environment.
