By encouraging collaboration between our members throughout the entrepreneurial process, with programs, events, other forums created by entrepreneurs, TiE has created a repeatable cycle to foster the next generation of entrepreneurship.

Founded in 1997, TiE Boston is a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the entrepreneurial ecosystem by supporting founders, innovators, investors, students, and business leaders at every stage of the entrepreneurial journey.

 

Built on the principle of entrepreneurs helping entrepreneurs, TiE Boston accelerates innovation through mentoring, education, networking, access to capital, and community engagement. Our programs support entrepreneurs from idea to scale while helping develop the next generation of innovators and business leaders, creating a stronger talent pipeline and a more vibrant regional economy.
