On October 8-14, HUBweek, Boston’s ideas and innovation festival, returns to the Greater Boston Area and City Hall Plaza. Founded by The Boston Globe, Harvard, MGH, and MIT, this festival brings together the most creative and inventive minds making an impact in art, science and technology. HUBweek believes the future is inclusive and collaborative. That’s why this year’s theme for HUBweek is “We the Future” It is a call to action and an invitation. HUBweek will bring together innovators, artists, curious minds, and change makers to explore the ways to shape a more inclusive and equitable future for all.
HUBweek begins with two days of Open Doors, events during which local companies throw open their doors to innovation. On Wednesday, October 10, the main festival site, The HUB Presented by Liberty Mutual Insurance, will open to the public. The HUBweek Forums, which include three days of speaker sessions, take place from October 10-12. In addition to the Forums, HUBweek will feature keynotes in Faneuil Hall, speaker and panel sessions in the Ideas Dome Presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, unique 360° experiences in the Immersive Dome, a startup pitch competition final, murals and a public art exhibition, live performances, nightly parties, and much more. Select one of three pass types based on which experiences at HUBweek are most interesting to you.
