- Boulder, CO (1888PressRelease) September 05, 2014 - On Wednesday, October 8, Engage Colorado is bringing NewCo, a fresh twist on the traditional conference, to Boulder in an effort to educate the community about the city's innovative businesses. Not only will NewCo Boulder attendees hear presentations about a variety of companies spanning myriad industries, but they will also be able to tour participating businesses' cutting-edge work environments.
NewCo is rapidly gaining traction across the globe. The concept is simple but powerful: NewCo turns a traditional networking event inside out. Instead of filling a dark ballroom with attendees and having business leaders lecture in a one-to-many style, NewCo events take place behind the scenes of the world's most innovative companies. These events celebrate the companies that are building a new, purpose-driven way of work, one that is more nimble, nuanced, and open than previous rigid and hierarchical models.
"Boulder is a perfect venue for a NewCo event. Because of its vibrant startup community combined with high-growth companies, the area has fostered an innovation economy that is recognized throughout the world," said Engage Colorado co-founder Rich Maloy. "NewCo will take attendees behind the scenes of Boulder business and offer an experience unlike any other business showcase the city has seen."
Prior to the event, attendees will create personalized schedules to attend informational sessions hosted by Boulder's most innovative companies, gaining insight into over 35 businesses throughout Boulder. Participating companies, ranging from publicly traded companies such as Rally Software, to natural food startups like Skoop, will share stories about how they are innovating. Everyone is welcomed to sit in on one-hour presentations from participating company founders, presidents and CEOs.
