Host or Attend an Event

For America’s 250th birthday, let’s celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit across our nation.  Hosting or joining an event is a fun, easy way to join the national movement and help put entrepreneurship back at the heart of the American story. It’s a nationwide network of celebrations for America’s startup birthday – because nothing is more uniquely American than the entrepreneurial spirit.

You can turn any gathering – whether a business opening, a business open house, entrepreneurial meetup event, chamber meeting, networking event, or even a party in your home – into an official America the Entrepreneurial celebration by using the Event-in-a-Box Toolkit. Every celebration shines a light on the dreamers, makers, and builders who strengthen our nation and helps America renew its entrepreneurial spirit.
