This month we’re hosting six in-person events for startups looking to optimize their product for better PMF and understand how to build to MVP. There’s no need to be a current AWS customer, any startup can attend!

If you’re an entrepreneur with a great idea or a burgeoning startup looking for support, we invite you to immerse yourself in this innovative space and its thriving community at 525 Market Street. The SF AWS Startup Loft is open to all startups building on-cloud and is a free benefit for existing AWS Activate customers.

AWS is bringing the best startup content of the event (plus the party!) to the newly reopened AWS Startup Loft on San Francisco’s Market Street. From November 29 to Dec 1, the Loft will be home to livestreams of keynote speeches from AWS leaders. But this is more than just a watch party. Read on to learn everything you’ll be able to enjoy at the free San Francisco event.

The EMEA Startup Loft will feature four event streams covering business and technical content for startups at all stages of their journeys, along with the chance to connect one-on-one with a member of the AWS Startups team. Sessions will include monthly “Getting Started on AWS” presentations, deep-dive technical workshops for startup developers, vertical-specific Industry Days, and more.
