What we’re about
Hi Startupers,
This Meetup is the Boulder chapter of Colorado Startups! The purpose of Colorado Startups is to provide a starting place and a growing place for entrepreneurs building companies here in Colorado.
Boulder's startup community is one of the best in the nation and we're excited to keep this momentum by hosting monthly Startup Hikes and Startup Ski Days for entrepreneurs to get outside and have FUN!
Also, the connections continue beyond the events. Colorado Startups has three Social Groups (LinkedIn, Slack, and Facebook) for the community to connect outside the Meetup.
See you at one of the events and in the social groups!

- Welcome to Boulder (July) - New Tech Boulder Edition!Wild Provisions by 4 Noses Brewing Company, Boulder, CO
UPDATE For June/July 2025 - We are experimenting with hosting these on Thursday (vs Fri) prior to the New Tech Boulder event (Meetup + Site) that we can plan to head over to together as a way to plug folks into the broader community right away! Feedback welcomed. :D
Once a month, we welcome anyone new to the Boulder tech and startup scene, in person. We'll answer your questions, direct you to the right resources, and help make introductions where appropriate. Plus you'll meet other community members and individuals new to Boulder, yay new friends!
Three rules:
- Don't pitch us
- Offer to help someone with something (and follow through please)
- This isn't a 'sponsored' event, which means please help us support the venue by buying a beverage or a snack, and feel free to offer to pay for a new friend!
Please RSVP via Luma (here) so we know who to expect - and feel free to come every month as you get more integrated, you can help the next new person feel welcome.

Who are we?
We are a collection of longtime Boulder Tech leaders from different companies and backgrounds who are community-oriented and want Boulder and the broader
Front-Range tech scene to be the best in the country. Each month, a few of us host this event, and we often rotate as schedules allow. You will be greeted by 2-3 people from the following list, which is subject to change! If you've been in Boulder or Denver for more than 15 years and want to help host, please reach out.Natty Zola
