Tulsa’s entrepreneurial spirit comes to life during Global Entrepreneurship Week, a week-long series of 35+ events that spotlight innovation, growth, and resilience. This year’s lineup, powered by partners like Microsoft and Build in Tulsa, offers everything from The Future of Innovation in Oklahoma to Breaking the Unbankable Stigma. The events, primarily free and open to the public, will be hosted at 36 Degrees North, Tulsa’s official GEW organizer.
This year’s Global Entrepreneurship Week marks a pivotal moment for 36 Degrees North, as the organization welcomes a brand new Innovation Hub and name at the end of the year! Gradient, at 12 North Cheyenne Avenue, will serve over 3,000 members in its 112,000 square foot facility, becoming one of the largest Innovation Hubs in the nation. Serving as Tulsa’s home for Global Entrepreneurship Week over the past eight years, 36 Degrees North and it’s community has made an indelible impact, championing the importance of entrepreneurship and fostering Tulsa’s innovation ecosystem.
Reflecting on the transition, Devon Laney, President & CEO of 36°N shared thoughts on past successes and excitement for Gradient’s future role in setting new standards for programming and events statewide.
