VentureLab's Ready, Set, Startup!
Saturday, November 7, 2026
The Mansion
Enjoy dinner and drinks, live and silent auctions, a fun pitch game, and an after-party.
This year, Ready, Set, Startup! is taking over The Mansion for a high-energy night with Austin’s startup community, all in support of expanding entrepreneurship education for historically marginalized youth.
Presented by West Chelsea Contemporary, come ready to connect, collaborate, celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit, and help create more opportunities for the next generation of creators and leaders.
Cocktail attire is recommended.
ABOUT VENTURELAB
At VentureLab, we’re closing the opportunity gap for future creators and leaders by building students’ confidence, creativity, and growth mindset, especially for girls and historically marginalized youth.
Your support funds scholarships and makes entrepreneurial learning possible in schools and community-based organizations. We train and coach educators, provide curriculum and resources, and connect students to mentors and materials, even when those supports are not otherwise available.
Help us bring VentureLab to more under-resourced communities and change the face of entrepreneurship!
Thank you to our
