Who are we?

Presented by Michigan Founders Fund. Hosted by Michigan Central. 

Michigan Tech Week (MTW) is the premier convening for tech and high-growth entrepreneurship in our state. 

This high-growth, founder-first conference includes an opening night kickoff and then two solid days of programming all under one-roof. You can expect  immersive workshops, panel discussions, investor and corporate connections, curated networking opportunities, pitch competitions, regional highlights, and more.

Led by Michigan Founders Fund, Michigan Tech Week is made possible with support from a team of statewide collaborators who are focused on advancing innovation throughout Michigan.

Now in its fourth year, we hope you join us May 19-21 for another groundbreaking event at the beautifully renovated Michigan Central in Detroit. Whether you were a founder, investor, corporate innovator, student, or community member, MTW is the place to mobilize for success.
