Boulder Startup Week 2025

Join us for a Boulder Startup Week x Boulder Health Tech event! We will meet at 9am on the Northwest corner of the parking lot at 8th & Cherry for introductions, and then hike around the Wonderland Lake area for about 60 minutes. After our hike, we will meet at 11am for coffee and conversations. This will be on a combination of relatively flat paved and gravel paths, and at a conversational pace. Please reach out if you have any accommodations you might need!

Get your blood flowing with this fun run/jog around downtown Boulder with fellow founders and investors. What better way to get to know each other than while pounding some pavement (or dirt!).

🧗‍♂️ Ever watched a founder pitch their startup while dangling from a wall?
Now’s your chance.

📅 Wednesday, May 14
🕚 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM MST
📍 Local Climbing Gym (details in Luma)

Pitch on the Pitch is what happens when Hot Ones meets Mic’d Up—but on a climbing wall.

As founders climb increasingly difficult routes, they’ll deliver their pitch while investors ask questions—mic’d up, mid-climb, and in front of a live audience.

🥪 Lunch provided
🧗‍♀️ Climbing gear provided
🪢 Free climb time available before and after the main event

What’s harder to climb—the rock wall or your preference stack?

Imagine this scene: It’s 9:30 am and your colleagues, direct reports, or managers are already present, focused, and clearly engaged in the day’s demands. And as the day progresses, so does your team’s happiness and curiosity. By the end of the day, everyone is satisfied and eager to see each other again the next morning. I believe that such a blissful state is achievable through a simple, daily practice of responding to prompts. That’s right, I’m asking you to get your team to spend 5 to10 minutes each morning writing a response to a prompt that will get them thinking (creatively!) about how to solve your businesses’ problems, and that will keep them focused on supporting what truly matters.

I know it works because I’ve done this for years and seen many individuals and teams benefit from the simple, shared practice of prompt response. I’ll share the magic by modeling the practice, then walk through the blueprint of how to bring the practice to your workplace, and we'll discuss how to track the changes.
The workshop session will include an introduction about the process, a prompt-writing exercise by participants, a sharing exercise by participants, and a discussion of how to tailor this practice to your needs. This exercise provides business and team leaders with a means to focus, motivate, and encourage their team members at zero monetary cost, while yielding deep rewards.
