RocGrowth Candids was created to educate, inspire, and connect Rochester’s entrepreneurs. The regular event features a local founder who shares personal stories and lessons learned on the path to building a successful company. We start and finish with informal networking over beer and hors d’oeuvres. In between, we conduct an open interview with our featured guest. So, join us. Tap into a strong support network, form meaningful connections, and gain inspiration for the startup journey ahead.
