How Tech Bloc has brought the SA Ecosystem Together
“TechBloc has been that one voice of the tech and startup community to rally the community in San Antonio around common cause. Now is the time to inspire and empower as we catch the rising tide of San Antonio and Texas’ growth in tech and startups to be a beacon of talent and opportunity”
“From that faithful first event at Southerleigh at The Pearl in 2015, where we were spilling out into the courtyard, TechBloc has served as a voice for pushing boundaries and change in the tech and startup ecosystems here in San Antonio. What started with changing the narrative on ride share, has now become a ‘vehicle’ for access and growth. Growth such as funds for families to have access to internet for education. Additionaly, TechFuel… a pitch competition that serves to ‘fuel’ some of the next big startups to come out of San Antonio. Not only a member and serial co-founder, also the “Official, Unofficial DJ” for all the TechBloc events.. I have enjoyed the privilege of being here since day one and watched the change brought about. As a result of TechBloc making people more accessible to each other through a common goal… I have watched many, helped make, and made myself many connections and friendships. It has been a great journey. I am excited for what’s developing from TechBloc moving into 2024. Will you join us? Sign up today!”
