Sponsored by the Song Foundation, Venture 313, Lightship Capital and Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC), Black Tech Weekend will connect tech entrepreneurs, investors and professionals to education, resources, opportunities — and each other — in the Motor City.
Detroit was selected to host Black Tech Weekend based on demand, the city's growth in early-stage funding and investor activity, its rapidly emerging startups ecosystem, and abundance of Black entrepreneurial and professional talent across a multitude of tech sectors, from mobility and EV to ed tech to clean tech.
