CSW Tee Design Contest

Colorado Startup Week is rooted in collaboration, and this year we're extending that ethos to our official 2026 tee. We're seeking a Colorado-based artist or graphic designer to create something truly unique, a design that creatively encapsulates the spirit, energy, and community of CSW.

This is more than a merch project. It's an opportunity to leave your mark on one of Colorado's most anticipated celebrations of entrepreneurship and innovation. Submit your portfolio and tell us what draws you to this collaboration. The selected designer will receive a $1,000 stipend. This is a paid partnership, not a design contest. Applications close on August 7, 2026.

Registration will open soon!

Don’t miss your chance to be part of this year’s Colorado Startup Week!

Volunteers make up the vast majority of the Colorado Startup Week organization and serve as the backbone of the event. From the organizers to our session attendants, Colorado Startup Week would not be possible without the help and support of the entire community. Stay tuned to learn more volunteering at Colorado Startup Week!

Please fill out this form if you would like to be connected with community members seeking venues for their events. This information will be shared with all CSW event organizers.
