GEW 2026 Pittsburgh Without Borders: Global Entrepreneurs Building and Investing in Pittsburgh

About

Pittsburgh has always been a city of builders, and today those builders come from every corner of the world. Join international entrepreneurs who came to Pittsburgh to start or invest in businesses as they share why they chose the city, what surprised them along the way, and where they found support. You’ll leave with new connections, practical next steps, and a clearer picture of the local resources available to help you start or grow a business here.

Who should attend: Current and aspiring entrepreneurs, immigrant and international founders, prospective investors, and service providers who support them. This program is part of the Global Entrepreneurship Week 2026 celebration. During one week each November, thousands of events and competitions in 200 countries inspire millions to engage in entrepreneurial activity while connecting them to potential collaborators, mentors, and even investors. Pitt and CMU celebrate Global Entrepreneurship Week together with a host of events scheduled for the week of November 16-22 2026.
