"Entrepreneurship Week Edition"

Nexus Louisiana is getting ready for the 13th edition of Baton Rouge Entrepreneurship Week (BREW), scheduled from May 7th to 9th at Mid City Tower.

This event celebrates entrepreneurship and innovation by serving as a hub for networking, collaboration, and idea exchange. This year’s event promises a variety of workshops, presentations, and panel discussions steered by industry leaders, startup founders, and business experts.

The attendees will enjoy unique opportunities for pitch competitions, networking with potential investors, and gaining knowledge about the challenges and opportunities in the business landscape. The event’s pinnacle will be the keynote address given by a distinguished speaker from the entrepreneurship ecosystem.

The keynote speakers will include Dhiraj Mukherjee, co-founder of Shazam, and Felecia Hatcher, CEO of the Black Ambition Prize.

Gearing up for Baton Rouge’s Entrepreneurship Week

Mukherjee’s “Stayin’ Alive” address will share insights from his entrepreneurial journey, including his achievements in investing in over 250 diverse startups following Shazam’s $400 million acquisition by Apple in 2018. This keynote marks his first public speech in the United States.

Meanwhile, Hatcher’s speech, “Thriving,” will delve into the link between self-understanding and leveraging a unique ‘Zone of Genius’ to boost innovation and success. She has already helped over 100 entrepreneurs secure over $95 million in investment through her guidance and financial support.

Baton Rouge Entrepreneurship Week 2022 presents an agenda with networking opportunities, panel discussions, workshops, and pitch competitions over three days. It encourages participants to embrace this platform fully to nurture growth, foster connections, and generate innovative solutions.
