1 Million Cups presentations have been suspended until further notice.
Each week, 1 Million Cups offers two local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of approximately 250 potential partners, mentors and investors. Presenters prepare a six-minute educational presentation and engage in 20 minutes of feedback and questioning after they present. Entrepreneurs gain insight into possible ways they can improve their businesses, gather real-time feedback, connect with a community that truly cares about their progress and walk away feeling like they have advanced their business.
It is always FREE to attend. The audience also learns a great deal from the presentations. Whether through passively listening or deeply engaging with the entrepreneurs, there is much to learn every week from these dynamic and diverse communities.
Founded in April 2012, 1 Million Cups has been replicated across the country, with more than 30 cities hosting weekly events as of early 2014.
