| What is Start Something NJ? |
|
Rising Tide Capital has been the local host of Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) in Jersey City for the past three years. In 2011, our 4th year as local organizers, we expanded our GEW celebrations to include Essex County under the theme of Start Something NJ—a challenge to New Jersey’s residents to support entrepreneurship as a vehicle for promoting economic growth at a critical time.
The inaugural Start Something celebrations were a tremendous success bringing more than 600 New Jerseyans together to Discover local resources, Connect to opportunities and Grow their business dreams. Some of the highlights of the week included a statewide video pitch competition; a speaker series at Orange High School in Orange, NJ; and seminars and workshops featuring a range highly-acclaimed speakers on a range of entrepreneurship-themed topics.
