Start Here Conference

The entrepreneurial journey can be lonely—late nights, uncertainty, and difficult decisions. But you don't have to walk it alone.

Start Here is an evening of inspiration, connection, and community hosted by the College of Western Idaho. Wherever you’re at in your entrepreneurial journey, this event was made for you.

Join us for a panel conversation with local entrepreneurs, food and networking with fellow builders, and a keynote from Olympic medalist and entrepreneur Kristin Armstrong—followed by time to mingle and connect. The Treasure Valley is a great place to start and grow something. Come find your people.
