About the Event

Startup Day is a one-day conference built by founders, for founders — designed to hand you the new startup playbook and shortcut a year’s worth of hard-learned lessons.

Join 400+ founders, investors, and startup experts at Seattle’s iconic waterfront for a day packed with real insights from people who’ve actually done it, from validating an idea all the way to acquisition. No paid speakers. No fluff. Just first-hand knowledge on what it takes to build in the AI age.

What’s included:

• 15 founder talks covering every stage of the startup journey
• Keynotes from Eric Ries (The Lean Startup) and Terry Myerson (Co-founder & CEO of Truveta)
• 1:1 Advisory Room sessions with investors, founders, and experts
• Co-founder of the Match program (presented by Thinkspace)
• Startup Fair featuring dozens of early-stage companies
• Breakfast, lunch, coffee, and a happy hour (5–7 PM)
• A free copy of Eric Ries’ new book Incorruptible ($35 value)

Whether you’re an active founder, an aspiring one, or simply startup-curious, this is your chance to get in the room, make the connections, and walk away ready to move faster.
