Durango, Colorado – The West Slope Startup Week is set to return next year from August 19 – 23, 2024. This week-long event is designed to bring together entrepreneurs, small business owners, makers, techies, and more to connect, learn, and collaborate. With over 60 free educational workshops and networking events, West Slope Startup Week is the perfect opportunity for anyone looking to grow their business, learn new skills, or simply connect with like-minded individuals.
Next year’s West Slope Startup Week will be hosted in Durango, Colorado for a second year. The organizers are excited to expand the programming with even greater use of the beautiful surrounding areas of the city and historic spaces downtown. In addition to the week of programming in Durango, towns and cities across the West Slope will be encouraged to create Hometown programming and networking opportunities.
The West Slope Startup Week is made possible by the generous support of Startup Colorado (https://startupcolorado.org/) and S.C.A.P.E. (https://www.goscape.org/). These organizations have been instrumental in bringing West Slope Startup Week to fruition and ensuring its success.
“West Slope Startup Week grows every year, thanks to how many incredible people and organizations come together to make it happen. It was inspiring to see how many folks traveled from all over the Western Slope for WSSW23, and how strongly the Durango community showed up to take advantage! We can’t wait to build on the foundation and make the second year in Durango unforgettable! Here’s to year six of WSSW!”
Attendees can expect a wide range of workshops and events throughout the week covering a range of startup-focused tracks like Money, Communication, People, and more.
Session submissions will open in the spring of 2024. Those interested in staying informed of request for submissions, release of schedule, hometown events, and more, can subscribe to receive regular updates.
