Join Forge Connecticut as they celebrate their expansion into Connecticut with a fun afternoon of networking, startup demonstrations, and a pitch competition with up to $15K in prizes!

Everyone in CT’s innovation ecosystem is invited – startup companies, suppliers, manufacturers, startup ecosystem organizations, and investors.

Paul Lavoie, Connecticut’s chief manufacturing officer, will deliver a keynote.

As part of the festivities, Forge Connecticut is offering startups the chance to win $15K in product development grant prize money. An expert panel of judges will award prizes to the five startups we select for a pitch competition. More startups will have tabletop demonstrations, with a chance to win an audience choice award. Pitch and demo applications will be open from May 5th-19th.

Come engage with the FORGE startup, supplier, and investor community, learn about emerging technologies in CT, and explore potential partnerships. CT’s ecosystem is already thriving and there’s so much potential for more.

Mark your calendars for June 5th from 2pm-5pm. They're excited to celebrate with you!
