Building a business comes with challenges, but the right connections can open doors to new resources, collaborations and opportunities. Join us on Tuesday, October 27, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at LogOff Brewing in Rancho Cordova for Startup Happy Hour, an evening of networking with founders, small business owners, innovators and others shaping Sacramento’s entrepreneurial community.

This month’s event features Dennis Delgado, founding member of Sac Tech Week, for an informal Ask Me Anything (AMA) session exploring entrepreneurship, technology and the importance of building connections across the region.

Meet Sacramento’s Startup Community

Startup Happy Hour brings together entrepreneurs, small business owners and innovators at different stages of their journeys in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Whether you are growing an established business, developing your first product or looking to get more involved in Sacramento’s startup community, this is an opportunity to share ideas, exchange experiences and make meaningful connections. With no formal pitches or presentations, attendees can enjoy conversations that lead to new perspectives, valuable introductions and potential collaborations.

Learn From Sac Tech Week Founding Member Dennis Delgado

This month’s AMA guest is Dennis Delgado, a founding member of Sac Tech Week, which brings together people and organizations helping grow Sacramento’s technology community. Dennis also works with the City of Rancho Cordova, supporting digital accessibility initiatives and piloting AI workflows. With more than a decade of experience in product design and Software as a Service (SaaS), he has developed user-friendly supply chain solutions through his work with SyncFab and NexStratus. He also helps business owners explore practical AI applications through Micro Biz Launchpad and the Sacramento AI Collective.

During the AMA, attendees will have the opportunity to ask Dennis about his entrepreneurial experience, the growth of Sac Tech Week, AI adoption and the importance of collaboration in Sacramento’s startup ecosystem. Whether you are interested in using AI to improve your business, developing a technology product or becoming more involved in the local innovation community, this is an opportunity to gain practical insights from someone actively contributing to the region’s growth.

Build Connections That Move Ideas Forward

One of the biggest advantages of being part of a startup community is connecting with people who bring different experiences, skills and perspectives. A conversation with another founder could help solve a business challenge, introduce you to new technology or lead to a potential partnership. Startup Happy Hour creates a welcoming environment where entrepreneurs, innovators and community leaders can build meaningful relationships that strengthen Sacramento’s growing startup ecosystem. Whether you are just getting started or running an established business, come ready to meet new people, exchange ideas and discover what others are building.
