Rattan L. Khosa SeedCon: Beyond the Hype
The Rattan L. Khosa SeedCon is Chicago Booth’s flagship entrepreneurship and venture capital conference. Through keynote fireside chats, panel discussions, and various networking sessions, SeedCon provides opportunities for entrepreneurs, investors, and passionate members of the startup ecosystem to explore emerging industry themes and connect over shared ideas. With an impressive lineup of speakers, the conference extends beyond the campus and attracts a broad audience from the greater startup and investor community. Hosted by the Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation in partnership with Chicago Booth’s Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital (EVC) student group, SeedCon is made possible thanks to a generous gift from Rattan L. Khosa, MBA ’79, as a part of the Rattan L. Khosa Student Entrepreneurs Program.
