Speaker Office Hours

​Part of Twin Cities Startup Week 2026, September 14–18.

​The conversation doesn’t have to end when the session does. Speaker Office Hours create dedicated space for 1:1 support between speakers and attendees in a more personal, informal setting. Come ask the question you didn’t get to during Q&A, dig deeper into something you heard on stage, get individual perspective on a challenge you’re working through, or simply meet someone whose experience sparked your curiosity.

​No formal presentation, no additional prep. Just a dedicated space for one-on-one conversations, useful questions, and connections that can continue well beyond the week.

​Location: Smail Gallery, on the 1st floor right as you enter the Olin Rice Science Center, Macalester College, 1600 Grand Avenue, Saint Paul, MN 55105.

​Getting here on Thursday. Parking, Basecamp, lunch, and the rest of the day: tcstartupweek.com/thursday
