Entrepreneurship and innovation will be celebrated HUB-style as aspiring business moguls from Boston-metro’s top public and private educational institutions gather for the 3rd annual Beantown Throwdown, hosted by the MIT Enterprise Forum of Cambridge.
Now in its 3rd year, the Beantown Throwdown will begin with a fireside chat about startups and entrepreneurship led by Scott Kirsner, the Boston Globe’s Innovation Economy columnist and founder of Innovation Leader, followed by the student pitches. #HUBweek
