Schedule

Spring 2012 “Season of Entrepreneurship.”

We’re excited to announce our most exciting season yet! We look forward to seeing you- often!

Business BOOSTcamp

We amped up our business plan bootcamp into a new Business BOOSTcamp! Join us for this day-long interactive course in entrepreneurship that will dramatically boost your chances of turning your startup into a success. Industry experts will kick off the day walking you through the entrepreneurial problem-solving process, and for the afternoon you’ll set up one-on-one Office Hours with professionals who will offer personalized advice relevant to launching, running and growing your business. Show off what you’ve learned when you present your (brief!) elevator pitch at the end of the session.

Who should attend? Entrepreneurs who are starting a company are strongly encouraged to join us! But our signature focus on entrepreneurial thinking and process is valuable for small business owners, non-profits, or anyone planning to expand into a new customer base or product line.

Date & Time: Saturday, January 28 8:30am- 4:00pm
Cost: $40 per person. (Lunch and materials included)
Location: EmergeMemphis Building. 516 Tennessee St.

Ignite Memphis 4: Enlighten us, but make it quick!

We’re again partnering with MemphisConnect for an evening of enlightenment, inspiration, and just plain entertainment. Mark your calendars for Ignite Memphis 4 on Thursday, March 1!

Got a topic you’re passionate about sharing, and up for the challenge of a 5 minute presentation, with 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds? Then submit it online here through February 10. Any topic is fair game, but  it can’t be a pure sales pitch (nor R-rated!). Or if you prefer to sit back and watch, purchase your tickets online using the link below. Early Bird tickets will be available for only $10 through February 23 so get them fast!
