Sept 23th - 25th, 2026 | MIT's Endicott House, Boston, Massachusetts
Min $5M Revenue to Attend
Since my first visit in May 2007, I’ve returned to MIT’s Endicott House
15 times to teach CEOs. The EO Organization’s Entrepreneurial Masters’ Program has been held here for 26 years, making it a symbol of growth for me. Now we’re bringing our COOs back a third time.
My vision for COO Connect is to create a dynamic 2.5-day event dedicated to enhancing revenue growth and professional development. Through keynote presentations, peer discussions with fellow COOs, and in-depth sessions on critical topics—including sales, marketing, automation, social media, and artificial intelligence—attendees will gain valuable insights, practical tools, and meaningful connections. This exclusive experience is designed to equip participants with actionable strategies to drive rapid revenue growth and bring fresh perspectives back to their teams.
The event includes world-class speakers, sharing sessions, and connection opportunities with COOs from multiple countries, along with meals and fun activities. Join us at the spectacular MIT’s Endicott House.
