Join the global movement of celebrating and empowering entrepreneurs!

eRising is a FREE annual, in-person and online live event that brings together the region's most connected entrepreneurial minds under one roof. Experienced entrepreneurs will share their perspectives on the critical strategies and best practices needed by those seeking to start or grow a business. This year’s theme is “Failing Forward” which celebrates the shared challenges, obstacles, and triumphs of entrepreneurs and small business leaders.

Our presenters will speak about their insights and lessons learned along their entrepreneurial journeys, and will inspire the next generation of small business owners to chart their successes!
