Join us to see 25 Harvard student and alumni startups pitch live at the finale of our global venture competition.

Join the Harvard Innovation Labs for our annual celebration of innovation, community, and entrepreneurship at Harvard.
Tickets are now available to the Harvard community. Registration will open to the public on or before April 22.

The theme of this year’s competition is “What Moves You” — and our founders represent the diverse paths to entrepreneurship and how early ideas can lead to real impact.

We’ll hear live pitches from 25 finalists and reveal which ventures will receive a share of $500,000+ in funding, courtesy of the Bertarelli Foundation.

HOW TO JOIN
In-person: Join us in person for the awards ceremony in Klarman Hall in Allston, Massachusetts. An after party will follow at Schwartz Pavilion (directly outside of Klarman Hall) with food, drinks, and a chance to meet and mingle with the finalists and our broader innovation community.
