Welcome to
Fort Wayne Tech!

Fort Wayne Tech is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that’s passionate about more than just technology—we’re here to support the people behind it. Our mission is to empower Northeast Indiana’s tech community and prevent brain drain by building an ecosystem that encourages lifelong learning, explores career pathways, and drives innovation.

We’re dedicated to fostering a community where ideas spark, talent flourishes, and meaningful connections are made. Through events, workshops, mentorship, and collaboration, we create spaces where everyone can grow and contribute.

Together, we’re shaping the future of tech in our region.
