TALK presents its biennial event called Techfest Louisville this year on Aug. 26-27. Tickets are on sale now for $99 which covers an all-access pass for all sessions and the mini-tradeshow, including meals and cocktails. We’ve got a great lineup of speakers, sponsors, and a new venue, Noble Funk Brew Co. at 922 S. Second St. This year we will start with networking and lunch beginning at noon each day. On Day One we will have a special cocktail hour for even more networking! We’ll conclude Techfest this year with A Look At Ransomware & What to Do Panel, and have a final toast to all our colleagues in the area tech community.
TechFest Louisville is known for bringing speakers from international to local regions together to give us a more robust view of tech trends today, so that business and tech professionals can build a better future in our communities! We generally have held this event every other year in the last decade, and we will be looking at continuing this wonderful opportunity to connect on a more regular basis as we move forward! This year we will have concurrent sessions for twice the learning and an opportunity to choose where to head next!
We generally have 200+ people attend our two-day event from surrounding regions in a 150-mile proximity to Louisville, KY from the business-to-business sector. From startup leaders, to tech teachers, to CIOs, government leaders in innovation, IT managers, manufacturing and robotics experts, as well as graphic designers, IT services and support personnel, and those in specialty careers, like healthcare tech—we welcome you all to attend!
Key tracks for our concurrent session approach will include:
- –5G & Broadband
- –Edge Computing
- –Healthcare IT
- –Workforce Transformation
- –Cybersecurity
We will have concurrent sessions from noon on with lunches each day occurring outside as well as a Day 1 cocktail hour. And, let’s not forget about our tradeshow—12 to 20 vendors (click here to sponsor a booth) will be available to you to learn more about the action steps in technology that your company, small business or organization can consider. There’s never a dull moment on the tradeshow floors with demos, and new tech available for your viewing, and special opportunities to do that networking we have all missed during the pandemic.
