More from the original report
Steve Fredette , President, Co-founder, and Director of Toast , brings one of the city’s most recognizable founder stories to the stage. Toast’s journey offers a look at finding customers, developing product-market fit, scaling a company, and continuing to evolve after the original idea succeeds. It is proof that founders don’t have to leave Boston to build a company with national and global reach.
Chase Garbarino , CEO and Co-founder of HqO , will tackle the geography question directly. He has built from Boston for more than a decade, raised significant capital, and expanded HqO internationally without relocating the company to a traditional West Coast startup hub. His conversation will dig into the advantages, disadvantages, and realities of building where the startup playbook wasn’t necessarily written.
