GCN Investor Conference in Newport Beach, CA
OCT 15 · NEWPORT BEACH, CA
LIVE EVENT
A private research university with strong medical and public health schools in a rebuilding city.
Tulane's schools of medicine and public health are its strongest research assets, with a tropical medicine tradition that has given it long-standing international health programmes.
Its business school has built an entrepreneurship programme closely tied to New Orleans's post-hurricane economic rebuilding.
New Orleans has developed a small but distinctive startup community, with health technology, energy, water management, and creative industries as recurring categories.
Louisiana's digital media and software tax incentives have been an unusual driver of company formation in the state.
Company formation clusters in health technology, medical devices, water and coastal technology, and consumer businesses.
Coastal resilience and water management are genuinely distinctive strands, driven by the region's own exposure.
Louisiana operates state economic development and technology funding, and New Orleans has a small angel community.
Institutional capital generally comes from Houston, Atlanta, or the Northeast.
GCN’s global network includes millions of startups and founders and a broad community of investors, creating opportunities to discover potential connections across university communities.
