Startup companies are the dynamic leading edge of the Seattle business community. They introduce new ideas and challenge assumptions. While some make it big and others close up shop, they all have dramatic stories and can teach everyone about innovation. Join John Cook, Co-Founder of GeekWire, as he moderates a panel of startup professionals as they delve into Seattle’s startup culture and the role Seattle’s high tech history plays in the equation.
Panelists include:
- Leen Kawas, President and CEO, M3 Biotechnology
- Matt Oppenheimer, Co-Founder and CEO, Remitly
- Kieran Snyder, Co-FounderCEO, Textio
For the fourth year, MOHAI partners with GeekWire to present the Seattle 10—a collection of history-making local startup companies. These ground-breaking businesses then present their innovative ideas on massive napkins, which become part of MOHAI’s permanent collection.
