COS Rising 2025 - Startup Hike at Red Rock Canyon Open Space

Step away from your laptop and into the fresh Colorado air with our Startup Hike at Red Rock Canyon Open Space. This is your chance to connect with fellow founders, entrepreneurs, and innovators in one of Colorado Springs’ most breathtaking outdoor spaces.

Instead of sitting in conference rooms, we’ll walk the trails—sharing ideas, building relationships, and finding inspiration among the striking red sandstone formations. Whether you’re seeking meaningful networking, a spark of creativity, or simply a healthy reset from your daily routine, this hike offers the perfect balance of community and nature.

Bring good walking shoes, water, and your adventurous spirit. Let’s recharge together and celebrate Colorado’s vibrant startup community, one step at a time.

Designed for founders, startups, and tech-driven thinkers, the event features interactive workshops, networking opportunities, and unique experiences that highlight both the challenges and triumphs of building something new.
