Twin Cities Startup Week 2025

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.
