“Next time MITCNC invites you to a Startup Connector, go with an open mind. I found my dream job there”

We anticipate to sellout our 300 person attendee limit. Dozens of companies ranging from early stage startups to larger pre-IPO are expected to attend and exhibit seeking new team members to help them grow. Last season’s event demonstrated overwhelming success for hiring and business opportunities.
