What makes RISE week unique?
RISE Week is organized differently than most professional development conferences. RISE sessions are independently organized by hosts, each of whom chooses the topic and location for his/her session. These peer-led forums are limited to 25 participants and take place all over Austin. RISE is also expanding to other cities in 2011. RISE reflects Austin’s uniquely collaborative entrepreneurial culture. At the event’s sessions, entrepreneurs from multiple industries and backgrounds, along with leaders from universities, business, non-profits, and government, all freely share ideas and experiences.
