Startup-Tech Connect is where Sacramento’s startup and tech community comes together to kick off the new year by sharing ideas, meeting new people, and building real connections. Whether you are working on a business, exploring new technology, or simply curious about what others are building, this is a space designed for you.

The start of a new year is the perfect time to reconnect and refocus. The right connection can make a real difference. It might be a collaborator, a mentor, a first customer, or simply someone who understands the journey you are on. At Startup-Tech Connect, we create space for meaningful conversations that can help shape what comes next. One conversation can open the door to your next step.

This event is about community. It is for entrepreneurs at every stage, small business owners, and anyone interested in startups and technology. Bring your questions, your ideas, or just your curiosity. Starting the year in a room full of builders and thinkers can set the tone for everything that follows.

Who Will Be There

Expect to meet founders, coders, designers, product managers, investors, community builders, and people exploring the startup world for the first time. Everyone brings a unique perspective, and everyone is welcome.

Support Local

We are excited to host this event at Hop Gardens, a local small business known for great pizza,  craft beer and welcoming vibes. By showing up, you are not only connecting with the startup community, you are also supporting a neighborhood spot that supports all of us.
