Startup to Scaleup: Build in Greater Boston

​We hear it time and again, across startup industries in Boston: the city is a great place to start, but not the place to grow a thriving business. Yet Boston’s suburbs are home to massive biotech companies that started– and continue to have a presence – in Cambridge or elsewhere near the Boston hub. With ample space, economic development teams ready to support, and unique incentives to bring businesses in, why don’t more startups look less far afield?

​During this Salon, we’re partnering with the City of Norwood to talk about what it takes to turn mindsets. We’ll hear from experts across startups, government, corporate, and more as we discuss:

• ​Public-Private Partnerships for Climate

• ​Resources Startups Need from Scaling Partners

• ​Why Scale-ups chose Greater Boston – and stay

​

​Climate Salon is a 501c3 nonprofit organization focused on bringing stakeholders together to solve climate challenges. Through educational events, its network of support organizations, and charitable giving, Climate Salon accelerates community action to bring ideas to life.
