About +Venture North
Presented by NVNG Investment Advisors, +Venture North 2025 will showcase how collaboration and networks between venture capital and corporations can further propel Midwestern industries to become engines of economic growth.
This year’s program will explore the breakthroughs reshaping critical sectors—from autonomous machines and robotics in heavy equipment to the future of transportation and mobility. We’ll examine how national security is driving a new wave of defense tech, how quantum and advanced computing are unlocking next-gen capabilities, and how reindustrialization is redefining construction, energy, and logistics across our region.
Attendees will hear insights from venture capitalists, corporate innovators, successful founders, and operators leading the charge.
