SCN, 2024 FALL ECOSYSTEM BUILDER SUMMIT
2024-10-30 - 2024-11-01 | CA
The 2024 Fall Ecosystem Builder Summit will be in the Bay Area from Wednesday, October 30 to Friday, November 1! Our homebase will be in Oakland, California, but we will get a chance to see the Bay Area ecosystem as a whole. This continuation of our 10 Year Anniversary Celebration will include all of your favorite summit activities. Join us for 2.5 days across 3 cities in the Bay Area (Richmond, San Francisco, Oakland) to meet changemakers, ecosystem builders, capital stewards, entrepreneurs and policymakers focused on creating new models for the Next Economy.
Summit Theme // Reimagine: Building Community Power
The Summit will center on building community power, which is essential for the success of entrepreneurial ecosystems. This Summit aims to transform fragmented, isolated efforts into a cohesive, regenerative network that sustains and amplifies our collective success. By uniting ecosystem builders from across the nation, the Summit will explore how different regions, from Richmond and East Oakland to San Francisco and beyond, can support each other’s work, pool resources, and advocate for greater systemic change. The Bay Area’s unique blend of Silicon Valley innovation and Oakland’s community-driven economics demonstrates how to balance economic vitality and social benefit. The Startup Champions Network, recognized for its collaborative spirit and grassroots approach to inclusive economic development, offers a platform to challenge the dominance of monopolistic platforms and support the resurgence of small businesses and startup ecosystems. While one Summit won’t solve every challenge, it will spark essential conversations, paving the way for a more connected and sustainable entrepreneurial future.
