CreatorCon is the annual entrepreneurship conference hosted by Do Good Foundation. We bring founders, creators, students, economic developers, and the people building the entrepreneurial ecosystem into the same room — for two days of sessions, conversations, and connections you won't find anywhere else.
The 2026 program will feature working founders sharing what's actually working in their businesses, ecosystem builders discussing how to support entrepreneurs at every stage, and plenty of unstructured time to meet the person you didn't know you needed to meet.
Registration is now open via our event partner, Whova. Save the date — September 23 & 24, 2026 — and we'll see you in the room.
We're finalizing the founders, operators, and ecosystem builders who'll take the stage this year. Registration is open — be the first to see the lineup when we announce it.

Every year at CreatorCon, founders pitch their businesses live in front of judges and the room. One walks away with $5,000 in non-dilutive prize money — and all of them walk away with the kind of feedback you can't get anywhere else.
