Description

SCAPE has been a cornerstone of the Southwest Colorado startup community for more than a decade, helping launch over 60 companies and building a culture of entrepreneurial support. Now, the organization is entering a new era—and you’re invited to celebrate the transition.

Join this interactive gathering to meet SCAPE’s new Executive Director and reflect on the impact of the leadership that came before. This is more than a meet-and-greet—it's a chance to connect with peers, get inspired, and help shape what’s next.

Here’s what to expect:

• Hear from Heather Otter, SCAPE’s new Executive Director, about her vision for the future and how she plans to support the next wave of startups.

• Celebrate the legacy of Elizabeth Marsh, SCAPE’s founding director, and her 11+ years of impact.

• Connect with local entrepreneurs, mentors, investors, and startup champions.

• Learn how you can engage with SCAPE and help strengthen the region’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.

This gathering is a great fit for anyone who wants to celebrate community, connect with fellow founders, and hear what’s next for one of the region’s key startup resources.
