EXPERIENCE INNOVATION & CULTURE
For over a decade, New Orleans Entrepreneur Week (NOEW) – pronounced 'noh-wee!' – has brought together startup founders, business leaders, aspiring entrepreneurs, industry experts, investors, and other thought leaders to celebrate innovation, technology, entrepreneurship, culture, and big ideas during a dynamic week-long event.
In 2024, NOEW is offering a unique fusion of top-tier speakers, forward-thinking business-focused thought leadership, and the kind of world-class celebration of culture that defines New Orleans!
The Idea Village's core belief is that entrepreneurship is an agent of social and economic change. As an early champion of entrepreneurship in New Orleans, the organization has played an integral role in catalyzing the city's entrepreneurial movement. In addition to supporting over 18,000 entrepreneurs, The Idea Village has successfully elevated New Orleans' reputation as a hub of innovation, entrepreneurship, and business.
By serving as a catalyst and developing programs that provide direct support and education to founders and early-stage companies, The Idea Village helps entrepreneurs build innovative and industry-leading companies that generate revenue and jobs and help create a more vibrant, inclusive, and resilient local economy.
