THE SUMMIT IS DESIGNED
FOR YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS
If you are an aspiring founder, already launched, or an existing business that is thriving, then the Summit has been designed for you. Makers, artists, and ecosystem builders will also thrive at the Summit.
The content of the Startup Mountain Summit is focused on the business side of startups and small businesses. It is industry agnostic and the content is tailored towards growth, connections, and inspiration. You will also have plenty of opportunities to connect with other founders, investors, and supporting organizations to grow your network.
INSPIRATION
Hear inspiring stories on how others launched, scaled, and existed their businesses. You will also be given the inspiration to apply what you learn in your own business through new tools and techniques that successful founders are sharing.
GROWTH
Forget the growth hacks.
Learn how true rapid-growth happens and how others achieved it through sustained best practices. You will also learn about venture capital, bootstrapping, and alternatives to both.
CONNECTIONS
Meet other founders, investors, and supporting organizations in unique ways. Make a full weekend around the Summit and meet someone axe throwing or on a chill bike ride through the mountains.

WHAT OTHERS
ARE SAYING
Startup Founders from across the Southeast and beyond are coming together to be inspired, learn from each other, and make connections that will last a lifetime.
Meeting other founders that are have been through the same challenges I’m facing always helps in ways I never knew were possible. I can’t wait to meet more startups!
Lauren Glass
Co-Founder, Personality Pool
I can’t wait to hear from the speakers and meet the investor network that will be attending this year’s summit. It is rare to be able to expand your connections in such a short period of time.

GET INSPIRED
& CONNECTED
Half startup conference and half startup retreat to the mountains, the Startup Mountain Summit provides the ultimate experience for early to mid-staged startups.
Startup Mountain goes beyond the “What do you do?” style of networking to get you connected. Enjoy a local craft beer while axe throwing with investors, crowd around a fire while you make s’mores, or hop on a local eBike for a quick trip with other founders.
