Everywhere I go, I seem to run into fabulous fellow Trinity Bantams doing incredible work! ????? It was a complete joy connecting with Kate B., Class of 2010, Chief of External Affairs and Managing Director at the Downtown Denver Partnership. A huge thanks to Kate and the Downtown Denver Partnership for hosting such an inspiring fireside chat and book signing at Denver Startup Week—it was a fantastic event! #lizelting #denverstartupweek #bestsellingauthor #downtowndenverpartnership #dreambigandwin #TrinityCollegeAlum Trinity College-Hartford, Carol J Carter

Another successful Denver Startup Week is on the books! Congratulations to my teammates at the Downtown Denver Partnership for their phenomenal dedication and event production excellence.

Thanks to all the brokers who participated in our inaugural Office Broker-Entrepreneur ‘Speed-Dating’ event hosted by DSW sponsor, Capital One Business: Ana Sandomire Peter Knisely Max Stanton Ryan Peirona Michael Pavlakovich Michael Coppola Maddy Stevenson Bo Pitto

What an incredible time at Denver Startup Week! ?? I was thrilled to sit down for a fireside chat with the amazing Carol J Carter, where we dove deep into what it takes to launch and scale a business, embrace ownership as a leader, and build and lead high-performing teams. Thanks so much to Carol, GlobalMindED, Theresa Szczurek, PhD, Kate B., Downtown Denver Partnership and the entire Denver Startup Week community for creating such an inspiring space for entrepreneurs to connect and grow! ???? ?#DREAMBIGANDWIN #womeninbusiness #bestsellingauthor #WSJbestseller #femalefounder #forbeswomen #entrepreneurlife #lizelting #DenverStartupWeek #Leadership #Entrepreneurship

"It's going to take me at least a month to recover." -- me last night as I was crawling under my weighted blanket hoping to finally catch some much needed zzzz's. What an incredible experience this year's Denver Startup Week was for our team at ProFounder Network -- Chris Franks Anthony Franco Meghamala V.. We kicked things off on Monday with our Founder Leadership Summit and I had the pleasure and privilege to speak to dozens of women founders in attendance. Priscilla Asante I'm so glad we spoke and I'm beyond thrilled you decided to call Denver home for your US HQ. Looking forward to the impact you make locally. Danielle M. Keep building and keep climbing! Later in the week, the infallible Kate Bailey, MBA and Lizelle van Vuuren hosted an evening event that featured local Colorado female founders who are in the thick of it and had pearls of wisdom to share. Our team recorded our How To Founder podcast onsite daily and it was incredible to see founders, students, partners and allies come together to listen, learn and participate. Denisse Rodríguez Colón So excited we met and I'm planning a trip to Puerto Rico immediately. :) I also LOVED seeing founders bend the rules on our end of the week pitch session. With no pitch decks allowed, the incredible Olga Marinkina brought a flip chart to hammer her point home. Erica Hines MS, CWWPC kicked things off for us by pitching her incredible startup MindReels and Elizabeth Sugar Boese convinced us that selling a home is difficult and doesn't need to be. My founder cup and heart are full and I'm excited for what is in store.

It felt very fitting to wrap Denver Startup Week at the Hispanic Heritage Month kickoff, hosted by Latinas in Tech - Denver. Met great people, listened to great music, and of course, ate great food. ?? A celebration of professionals from various descents (I am half Mexican), the good work they are doing, and how to uplift one another and the community #DENStartupWeek

?? From San Diego to Denver, Ten Eleven’s very own Brian Draves joined the discussion between founders and funders at Denver Startup Week yesterday, along with Eric Shu of Access Venture Partners. So fantastic to meet with future cyber entrepreneurs to share a meal, and advice for getting started. Thanks again to founders Gadalia Montoya Weinberg O'Bryan, Dustin Lehr, and Fred Kneip for telling their stories and imparting lessons learned from their own cyber startup journeys! Thanks also to SVB for hosting us in their beautiful space! #DSW2024
