The next chapter of the 413 Entrepreneur Spotlight begins in September 2026!
Our newly expanded Entrepreneur Spotlight Events will bring the Western Massachusetts business community together on the second Thursday of each month from September 2026 through June 2027.
Each event will feature local entrepreneurs, valuable connections, and a new pitch contest where participating entrepreneurs can compete for a $1,000 prize.
Entrepreneurs interested in competing must first complete 413 Pitch Camp, our new online program designed to help participants develop their pitch and determine whether they are ready to present at an Entrepreneur Spotlight Event.
Additional event details, locations, featured entrepreneurs, and registration information will be announced soon.
Interested in going through 413 Pitch Camp and trying out for the pitch contest? Contact Living Local 413 President Bill Cole at bill@livinglocal413.org.
Our ESO (entrepreneur support organization) partner for this month!

We’re proud to partner with the SBDC for this event focused on local entrepreneurs who have been through the SBDC programs and training.
