# Spring is Coming!
Some winters are for hibernating, but this isn’t one of them.
Station Alpha and Founder Institute, in collaboration with Startup DC, are partnering on this public meetup celebrating fresh ideas, new beginnings, and the unstoppable energy of the startup ecosystem in the National Capital Region. With generous support from Unstuck Labs, this event brings together founders, builders, investors, operators, and the startup-curious for an evening that feels like the first warm day after a long winter - optimistic, electric, and full of possibility.
* Expect great connections with people who are actually building things, not just talking about them.
* Expect lightning pitches from awesome startups moving fast and thinking big.
* Expect conversations that start casually and turn into collaborations, partnerships, or maybe even the next breakout company.
Spring is when things grow, and startups are no different. Come meet the people shaping what’s next in the National Capital Region - and maybe plant a few seeds of your own.
