Waterloo Tech Week Official Kickoff
About Event
Let’s celebrate what makes Waterloo, Waterloo.
We’re kicking off Waterloo Tech Week on Friday, September 11 at 7:00 PM with a celebration of the builders, ideas, and community that make this region special.
Join people from across Waterloo’s tech ecosystem for a night of connection, inspiration, and, of course, snacks. Whether you’re a founder, student, operator, investor, technologist, or simply curious about what’s being built here, this is your chance to meet the people helping shape what comes next.
We’ll begin with a quick introduction to Waterloo Tech Week before moving into a casual mixer. There will be activities throughout the evening, along with light snacks, refreshments, and a limited number of Waterloo Tech Week swag items.
