Catalyst
Event Information
Description
Join the Dayton business community for The Entrepreneurs Center's signature event Catalyst, which will be powered this year by Wright State Research Institute's Dayton Tech Guide team!
What is Catalyst?
Catalyst is a high energy event designed to showcase Dayton's startup community, inspire engagement from stakeholders, and to spark new ideas through conversations.
The centerpiece of Catalyst is a series of pitches from promising Dayton startups to an audience of over 300 business & community leaders, angel investors, venture capital organizations, and fellow entrepreneurs.
Pitches will be interspersed with "Firestarters" who will be speaking on Risk, Culture, Diversity, and Action. These 10-minute, TED-like talks will serve as an inspiration to think about the future of our growing startup community and how we, as a community, can create a stronger, more vibrant ecosystem.
