Conference Sessions and Events

To get the entrepreneurial juices flowing, Innovate, Incubate, Accelerate will kick off on Friday, May 18 with the Swing for the Fences Workshop and an optional tour of Silicon Valley. The next day (Saturday), five concurrent, day-long preconference workshops will offer an in-depth look at some of today's hottest incubation topics.

That's just the beginning. Saturday night's networking dinner and opening reception will set the stage for nearly three days of educational sessions and roundtable discussions on all aspects of business incubation.

Throw in the NBIA Awards ceremony, an e-scholarship contest, live television screen tests, a walking tour of San Jose incubation programs and a reception at The Tech Museum of Innovation and you'll have all the components of a fabulous conference experience.
