August 21st to 25th

#WSSW23 is now accepting Session Submissions! Submit your session ideas before June 16th.

Free Educational & Networking Programming for Rural Entrepreneurs

West Slope Startup Week is a week-long conference for entrepreneurs, small business owners, makers, techies, and more. Attend 40+ free educational workshops and networking events virtually and in-person across the west slope.

West Slope Startup Week brings entrepreneurs, local leaders, and friends together to build momentum and opportunity around a community’s unique entrepreneurial identity.

Startup Weeks are multi-day events packed with presentations, panels, workshops, social events, and more – all crafted by locals – gathering the community to learn from each other and celebrate their comradery.

WHO IS WEST SLOPE STARTUP WEEK FOR?

West Slope Startup Week is for future, current, and repeat founders – people who started or want to start a business. Maybe you’re a successful, serial entrepreneur looking for your next project or a first-timer entering the stage searching for support.

Never started a company? No problem. This is also for entry- to executive-level employees looking to gain new skills and advance their careers.

And, it’s not all about tech (though some of it is about tech). This is for local, small businesses (coffee and bike shops, retail stores, restaurants) and high-growth startups serving a global market. It’s also for makers – manufacturers, brewers, outdoor recreationists. For growers and producers in agriculture to those serving up culinary creations.

GET INVOLVED

We’re calling on anyone who wants to grow – personally and professionally – and connect with their western neighbors from Durango to Steamboat Springs.
