Austin Startup Week

Perkins Coie was a proud sponsor of the 12th Annual Austin Startup Week in Austin, Texas. The conference brought together entrepreneurs, local leaders, and friends to connect, collaborate, and grow through educational tracks, mentor office hours, startup showcases, panel discussions, and networking mixers.

Our own Shayne Veramallay, Startup & Investor Services Director, participated in the Perkins Coie-hosted Entrepreneur Track panel, "Conspicuous Change Makers: How To Solve Problems at Your Company's Current Stage." The panel discussed being a first-time founder and how to navigate the risks—and reap the rewards—of launching your own business.
