Calling all Sacramento entrepreneurs! The 10th Annual LAUNCH Festival will take place April 3-7, 2017 in San Francisco. Billed as the world’s largest startup event, the LAUNCH festival is a celebration of entrepreneurship that takes place every year in San Francisco and will take place at the Innovation Hangar & Palace of Fine Arts Theater, San Francisco

With over 12,000 founders from around the world attend are expected thanks to the support of IBM, WSGR and Microsoft, it’s an event not to be missed by startup founders. And the good news is that startup founders can attend for free. But, there are only a handful of free passes left, so hurry to the ticketing page and apply to get yours now.

As if that weren’t enough, here’s some extra incentive. The LAUNCH Festival includes a series of several Summits focused on specific verticals, like robotics, drones, VR & AR, AI & Machine Learning, Food & Water, and Cannabis. If you’ve got a startup focused on one of the verticals, the organizers are looking for 10 startups to feature — for FREE — in each of these Summits:

  • A demo pit table
  • Founder/Investor speed dating
  • On-stage presentation
  • Networking lunch
  • Five founder tickets

The first 10,000 founders who apply to the main LAUNCH Festival can come for free: apply here.
