"The Best Networking Event in the MidAtlantic."

This will be our 49th consecutive Sold Out in-person event over the last 10 years!

Over 70% of previous attendees surveyed say that CONNECTpreneur is the "Number One" tech and investor event in the Mid-Atlantic region!

This unique event is like none other in the Mid-Atlantic, because of the high quality of our attendees, speakers and presenters.

And YES, the networking is unprecedented!

Program Highlights:

- "State of Early Stage Financing" with panel of leading investors

- Update on Maryland Venture Fund and TEDCO

- We expect 250 business leaders, including 100+ CEOs & Founders, as well as dozens of angels & VCs

- Showcase of 10 Emerging tech companies

- Heavy networking before, during, and after the event

Buffet breakfast and unlimited coffee/tea will be provided.

CONNECTpreneur is a bi-monthly networking mashup, which has been attended by over 25,000 business leaders over the past 10 years.

Space is very limited at this venue, and we expect another Sold Out crowd, so there will be no on-site registration.

All attendees must be pre-registered.
