Open house scheduled for StartUp Worcester
Entrepreneurs in Worcester will have a chance to show how well their businesses are doing when the Worcester Chamber of Commerce hosts an event just for them this week.
Chamber officials are holding a StartUp Worcester evening, an open house during which entrepreneurs who are launching their businesses can use their two-minute pitches to describe their progress.
Among the startups that are taking part in the event are WooRides, The Hum, Simplicity Tech, PW Industries, Psychoactive Entertainment, HydroGlyde Coatings, Geostage, FRWD Inc., Dropwise, Box Mountain Games, AsanaRa, and Arrow.
The startup companies offer a wide range of products and services; for instance, WooRides operates a fleet of pedicabs in the city, Box Mountain Games creates interactive media, while HydroGlyde Coatings creates coatings for medical devices.
StartUp Worcester is an enterprise created by several groups, including the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce's Higher Education-Business Partnership, Worcester CleanTech Incubator, and the Venture Forum. The platform provides both space and support for Worcester's entrepreneurs as they launch their ventures. It also seeks to keep graduates of the area's universities and colleges in Worcester by helping them grow their businesses locally.
The open house is slated for this Thursday, January 25, from 4:00 until 6:00 pm at WCTI on Portland Street.
Events like this can benefit if organizers work with brochure printers to create booklets describing the startup organizations.
