A New Era Has Begun—Introducing the VIA Summit
For more than a decade, the OPEN Conference has been a powerful platform for collaboration, connection, and innovation. We’re proud of the incredible community that has grown through OPEN, and we are excited to share that we’ve now embarked on an expanded vision for the future of innovation and entrepreneurship.
The VentureWell Innovation in Action (VIA) Summit is the next evolution of what OPEN began—bringing together leaders from education, industry, government, and STEM to tackle today’s most pressing challenges and forge bold solutions for the future. While the OPEN Conference will no longer take place, its spirit lives on through the VIA Summit, which builds on everything OPEN stood for and takes it to new heights.
We invite you to learn more about the VIA Summit, set to take place June 10-12, 2025, in New Orleans, Louisiana. This event will offer even more opportunities for you to connect, collaborate, and drive impact in the fields of innovation and entrepreneurship.
Thank you for being part of the OPEN legacy, and we look forward to continuing this journey together through the VIA Summit.
