MACP Competitiveness Conversation: Strengthening MA's Entrepreneurial Ecosystem

The Massachusetts Competitive Partnership (MACP) invites you to the next installment of our Competitiveness Conversation Series, where we will explore the critical role of business incubators and accelerators in fostering a thriving startup ecosystem and driving economic growth in Massachusetts.


This event will mark the release of our latest report, Strengthening Massachusetts’ Entrepreneurial Ecosystem: The Role of Incubators and Accelerators, which assesses the impact of Entrepreneurial Support Organizations (ESOs) and offers recommendations for the state to enhance their effectiveness.


Join leading experts, policymakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs for a dynamic discussion on how Massachusetts can better support startups, retain top talent, and ensure the state remains a premier hub for innovation. Panelists will share insights on best practices from other states, opportunities for investment, and strategies to enhance the impact of ESOs statewide.


Topics of Discussion:

  • The current landscape of business incubators and accelerators in Massachusetts
  • Key findings and recommendations from the MACP report
  • The role of public and private investment in fostering entrepreneurship
  • Lessons from other leading states on supporting ESOs
  • Actionable strategies to enhance Massachusetts' competitiveness in startup growth


Who Should Attend: Policymakers, entrepreneurs, investors, ESO leaders, business leaders, and anyone interested in advancing Massachusetts’ innovation economy.


This conversation will be an opportunity to collaborate, share ideas, and explore policy solutions that strengthen Massachusetts as a national leader in entrepreneurship. We look forward to your participation!
