Hatch Connect: MERGE Demo Day After-Party

What happens when startups, students, and communities come together to solve real problems?

Hatch Connect.

Join us right after MERGE Demo Day as we celebrate the first MERGE cohort, showcase real solutions built for communities.

This special edition of Hatch Connect brings together:

• MERGE startups and municipal partners
• Early-stage founders and curious builders
• Students exploring entrepreneurship and innovation
• Community leaders with problems ready to be solved

Why you should be there:

• Network with startups, students, and community partners
• Learn how communities bring real problems — and startups solve them
