About Startup Showcase
An ecosystem effort for New England founders
Startup Showcase is an ecosystem effort launched by organizations across New England to drive attention to the great startups building here, and to surface these companies and deals to the wider community of investors, operators, and partners looking to engage with startups.
Why we partner
Boston AI Week is built on the belief that the Week should be a rising tide for every ship in the ecosystem. New England founders are building remarkable companies, and Startup Showcase gives them the visibility they deserve while connecting the community directly with the builders shaping what comes next. We are proud to stand with the organizations behind this effort.
