Founded in FoCo

Founded in FoCo 2026 is in just a few days!!! @

From March 10–12 at the Fort Collins Senior Center, you can look forward to:
- 700+ community members including nonprofits, creatives, solopreneurs, and small business owners, all in the same space for three days
- 80+ sessions built directly from a community needs survey, the schedule was shaped by what Northern Colorado told us it actually needed right now
- The #1 challenge you reported: marketing and visibility. The #2: funding and revenue stability. Nearly 60% of respondents named one of those two. Every single track addresses them directly.
- Pay-what-you-can pricing, including $0, because the people who need this knowledge and networking most shouldn't have to figure out how to afford it
- Evening events each night: a Mayoral proclamation from Mayor Emily Francis, live music by Elyse Miller, mocktails from Herbal Mocktails on Wednesday, and Happy Hour at Simmer! on Tuesday
- A Resource Hub with 13 local organizations including the Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce, The Warehouse, City of Fort Collins - Government, Colorado SBDC serving Larimer County, Front Range Community College, Ent Credit Union, Institute for Entrepreneurship at CSU, She Goes High, Sage Advisors, and more available during every break, serving as connectors and not just as logos on a banner
- The breaks are intentional. The 3:30–5:00 PM coworking blocks on Tuesday and Wednesday are built for the conversations that turn into collaborations; and a partnership with Cohere Community and Angel Kwiatkowski to bring your homework to life with community and a space that's ready for new ideas.
- This year's theme is Organizational Mutual Aid. Bring what you know. Take what you need. Share what you can.

We built this program from the community up. 152 people told us what was keeping them up at night, and the schedule was largely shaped to help solve that problem. Come be part of the conversation.
