10 WEEKS OF TENWEST: WEEK 3

Tucson is cooling down and 10 weeks of TENWEST is heating up!

Temperature highs are officially below 100°, which means TENWEST is just around the corner! We like to call it Summer Lite, which usually ends right around Halloween, just in time for a BEAUTIFUL week of TENWEST!

Three weeks into our email campaign, we have covered some great material… Musical performers Jenny & The Mexicats, Silvana Estrada, and Noah Gundersen, “Do-not-miss” events such as TENWEST Street Fest and Parsons Dance at Centennial Hall, legendary conference keynote Joe O'Connell, and irreplaceable sponsors, Arizona Commerce Authority and Arizona Arts Live.

This week, we are ecstatic to share an out-of-this-world keynote from Dante Lauretta, Principal Investigator of the seven-year OSIRIS-REx Mission, joined by his esteemed collaborators, Daniella DelGuistina & Dr. Erika Hamden, the network event to top them all, TENWEST Mega Mixer, and introducing our first ever Podcast at TENWEST, powered by Tucson's finest and TENWEST Signature sponsor, Cloud Microphones.

Grab your passes now before prices go up in October!

Remember, if you feel like “I need to be there ALL week," a TENWEST All-Access pass gets you into EVERYTHING!!!




Remember that amazing little spot in El Presidio called La Cocina? Well, longtime owner and operator, Jo Schneider, has officially passed the torch on to her son Ben this summer for a full makeover! Ben renamed the historic joint Jo Jo's (tribute alert), and we are STOKED to host our Mega Mixer at the revamped space on Monday, Nov 6th.

What makes a Mixer "Mega" you ask?

All your favorite organizations who support business networking on a monthly basis coming together in one place for an ultimate meeting of Southern Arizona minds…

That's what!

TENWEST organizers, Startup Tucson, are joined by Tucson Young Professionals, Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Oro Valley Chamber of Commerce and more groups to be announced for this MEGA kickoff to the conference.

All General Admission and All Access pass holders, as well as partner organization members, are invited to kickoff the week in style at Jo Jo's and their adjacent cocktail bar, Monsoon Room, from 5:30pm-7:30pm on Monday, Nov 6th. Drinks and food will be available for purchase so bring your wallet and appetite!
