In 2025, the Maine Center, in partnership with the Maine Graduate School of Business and the University of Maine School of Law, launched the annual Maine Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Summit.
The inaugural summit was the first statewide gathering of its kind, bringing together business, law, and policy professionals to collaboratively identify the critical role that they can play in making Maine a top destination for startups and business growth. The event’s momentum will drive innovation and opportunity across the state, and the Maine Center looks forward to building on this important work through concrete action and future summits.
