Startup Milwaukee

Startup Milwaukee Showcase is like an expo for startups, with beer. There are no formal presentations, just local entrepreneurs demonstrating their products and services in an approachable setting. In 2018 we are gearing up to make the Showcase one of Milwaukee's largest startup events featuring a few startups from each of the region's accelerator and entrepreneurship training programs. Attendees at the Showcase include founders, future employees, investors, corporate innovators, college students and anyone wanting to discover and celebrate local startups. There is no set schedule; attendees are welcome to come and go throughout the evening.
