关于我们

Twin Cities Startup Week (TCSW) is Minnesota’s premier startup festival, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, corporate innovators, and entrepreneurial support organizations to build meaningful connections and drive real impact. TCSW is more than an event—it’s a movement focused on accelerating Minnesota’s most promising startups and strengthening the region’s innovation ecosystem. Each year, TCSW serves as a platform for founders, government leaders, corporations, foundations, educational institutions, and startup hubs to collaborate and create opportunities that propel startups forward. Through curated content, strategic networking, and investor matchmaking, the week fosters an environment where entrepreneurs can access the resources, mentorship, and funding needed to scale their businesses. In 2025, TCSW is evolving to create an even more streamlined and high-impact experience. Focused on founder-driven content, curated industry tracks, and expanded networking opportunities, this year’s event will provide startups with direct access to investors, potential customers, and strategic partners all within a more connected and accessible format. Twin Cities Startup Week is owned and operated by The Beta Group, a Minneapolis-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to growing and supporting Minnesota’s startup ecosystem.

    Helping Founders Succeed at Beta

    New Research: Autistic Mothers' School Experiences - "I'm sick of being the problem" A powerful new study published in the journal Autism reveals the challenges autistic mothers face when interacting with schools about their autistic children. This research deeply moved me. I have close friends raising autistic children, and I've witnessed their struggles firsthand. But this study opened my eyes to something I'd never considered: the unique journey of autistic mothers navigating the education system for their autistic children. The additional layers of challenge, understanding, and connection these mothers experience is both profound and rarely acknowledged. The research team, led by Dr Aspasia Stacey Rabba, conducted in-depth interviews with 31 autistic mothers in Australia. Their findings paint a concerning picture: Many mothers felt they were constantly fighting "battles" with schools to secure appropriate support Their expertise as both parents and autistic individuals was routinely dismissed The ongoing stress significantly impacted their mental health and family well-being Children's mental health suffered when schools failed to provide understanding environments Yet amid these struggles, there's hope. When schools built partnerships based on mutual respect and valued these mothers' unique experiential expertise, beautiful possibilities emerged. As one mother shared: "When it's going well, it's because they've listened to me, so then I feel like I have a say in what happens when my child is not with me." This research reminds us of the power of truly listening to parents—especially those with firsthand understanding of autism—and the transformative potential of respectful partnerships between families and schools. What has your experience been with parent-school partnerships? Has your expertise as a parent been valued? #AutismResearch #EducationEquity #NeurodiversityInclusion #ParentAdvocacy

  • What. A. Week. To everyone who experienced Twin Cities Startup 2024—the founders, thinkers, tinkerers, doers, makers, and more—THANK YOU. We are blown away by the amount of expertise, creativity, connection, and kindness we witnessed throughout the week. We sincerely hope you were able to make the most of your #TCSW2024 experience. From attending an Anchor Event (shoutout to MN Cup (University of Minnesota - Carlson School of Management), The MSP Equity Fund, and Minnestar!) to hearing from dozens of amazing community members in TCSW Sessions, there was a lot to do, learn, and take away. We’d also like to extend a special thank you to every one of our valued partners including our Strategic Partners—U.S. Bank, Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, JPMorganChase, and Northeast Bank. Without the support of our partners, TCSW would not be possible. The days are getting shorter, but the TCSW team isn’t heading in hibernation anytime soon. Please keep an eye on your inbox for a TCSW feedback survey. Your feedback is crucial to helping us make each TCSW better than the last. Again, thank you for being part of Twin Cities Startup Week 2024. Let’s do it again next year, yeah?
