Cucalorus Connect Application

The Cucalorus Connect Conference is focused on exploring economic development with a refreshing approach to place-based event branding that enhances our quality of place, delivers an incredible quality of experience, and attracts today’s most sought after traded-sector employers. Unlike the escapist entertainment and educational practices of the 20th century, Cucalorus hosts interactive events that enhance, explode, and empower our experience of reality. The catalyst for Cucalorus Connect is the digital transformation that has changed the ways we live, work, and play. It has touched every aspect of the global economy and is driven by bold new traded sector companies. Innovative entrepreneurs from around the world join regional startups for connection, sharing, and collaboration through a two-day schedule packed with captivating keynotes, engaging breakouts, and interactive programs like the 10×10 Challenge and Rocket Pitches.
