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.
2024 Conference: Innovating Amongst Giants In A Down Economy
As the world navigates a down economy, visionary entrepreneurs, seasoned investors, and adept operators come together to explore how start-ups can unlock solutions for the future in the face of large tech giants. SeedCon is amplifying these voices to explore strategies, share insights, and ignite a spark of creativity in a time where capital is constrained but innovation is ripe for the taking. Last year’s event took place on February 9, 2024 at the Gleacher Center in downtown Chicago and featured innovative leaders across industries such as healthcare, clean tech, and consumer businesses.
