The Startup Crawl — One of the Best San Diego Startup Week Events
At San Diego’s first ever Startup Week, there was an event built into the week called the Startup Crawl. The idea was simple: groups of Startup Week attendees would walk from startup to startup in the Downtown area to learn more about them.
In its first year, the Startup Crawl was dubbed the most fun event of the week by attendees. The only thing that’s changed from its first year to now is that we’ve learned how to make an already fun and exciting event even better. The 2016 Startup Crawl is the event to get at this year.
It’s different, it’s dynamic, and for people who don’t have the opportunity get out and see the entrepreneurial community in San Diego it’s absolutely something special. We have a robust ecosystem of companies, coworking spaces, and incubators in San Diego, and the Startup Crawl is one of the best ways we know how to showcase its diversity of founders and innovation.

Kickoff: Trek crawls leave promptly at 6pm.
After crawl: 9:15pm at atop the 707 Broadway parking lot

Here’s what you can expect:
Everybody who wants to take part should meet at the plaza at 225 Broadway and 858 Broadway Circle, where they’ll be put into groups of around 50. From there, each group will venture out to visit three different locations before heading to the parking lot of 707 Broadway for an after party.
At each location the group will spend about 45 minutes learning about the company, networking with likeminded people, and enjoying good food and drinks. Regardless of which tour route you take, this is a great opportunity to learn about the San Diego startup community from the people who live it every day.
Also, it’s a fun way to change up the pace of your daily grind plugging away on a computer. Get away from your desk for a while and go something fun that’s purely San Diego – this is the startup spirit!
This is the most fun way we’ve found to show off the San Diego startup scene — we hope you pull out your phones, take lots of pictures, use #SDSW and give the world something to look at!
