I feel lucky to have found Venture Café. In a matter of 13 weeks I have made more new connections in industries I normally would not interact with. These confections have led to new business opportunities and new friendships.

WHO WE ARE
ISOLATION IS THE ENEMY OF INNOVATION
Every Innovation Ecosystem–no matter the size–needs an activator that creates movement. Someone creating connections as well as stimulates cross-functional collaborations. Someone that addresses the social part of innovation. Through our years of first-hand experience as an Innovation Ecosystem Activator, we have perfected our method to effectively maximize the impact of any ecosystem as a whole.
Venture Café believes that Isolation is the enemy of innovation and our mission is clear: Connect innovators to make things happen. We are a neutral and trusted center of gravity that connects the entire ecosystem and is available to everyone. Through our programs we routinely activate ecosystems, creating continuous exchange and conversation.
