NEXT at its core is a community-building and networking conference. Take advantage of dedicated blocks to meet other NEXT attendees, including local entrepreneurs and startup employees, operators living in the North Bay, investors, and other community leaders.

Learn from powerful and punchy keynotes and discussions providing inspiration and purpose from some of the most successful thought leaders living in the North Bay.

Hear from the most innovative early-stage founders building across Marin + Sonoma. Presenters have five minutes and five slides to share their company vision with the assembled North Bay community.

Grab your lunch and spend time getting to know fellow NEXT attendees. MSIV’s new Executive Network members will host small topic lunches on a wide range of subjects relevant to North Bay entrepreneurs.

Everyone’s favorite NEXT tradition! Finish the day outdoors after we wrap up in plenary. Eat, drink, and network while enjoying sunshine and product samplings from local CPG entrepreneurs.
