TechCrunch Live is going to Boston, and you’re invited!

Must read

Boston has long been one of the most important startup ecosystems in the United States. With major universities and a legacy of innovation, the city is a great place to start up and run a venture-backed business. TechCrunch Live is thrilled to be hosting an event featuring Boston-local investors and founders.

TC City Spotlight: Boston takes place on February 27 at 11:00am PT / 2:00pm ET and is a free, virtual event. We’ll have several panels and interviews that highlight the opportunities and challenges facing the market. Investors will speak on the best way to raise capital from local firms, and they’ll talk about what sort of startups are most likely to get funding. We’ll have founders who can speak to the other side — which investors should be avoided by founders, and the best way to attract and retain talent in the ultra-competitive Boston market.
