We want ideas that help people understand innovation on a broader and more applicable level.

Venture Café offers a reflection of the diverse, talented and entrepreneurial innovation community of Providence and throughout Rhode Island. Thursday Gatherings provide an intentional space to the innovation community with access to high-quality educational programming and conversations. Each Thursday startups, small businesses, academics, corporates, investors, students, and governmental organizations convene, connect, and build relationships at Venture Café.

 

Our goal is to host new, exciting, thought-provoking content to fuel conversation. We inject new ideas and perspectives into the conversation, helping to spur innovation on a broader and more applicable level.
