2026 Ohio Tech Summit (powered by OhioX)

Join OhioX for the state’s definitive day in tech. The Ohio Tech Summit is more than an event; it is the annual gathering of the coalition building Ohio’s future as a leading technology hub.

From leadership of Fortune 500s to the founders of high-growth startups, this is where our ecosystem converges. Experience a full day of insights from industry titans, hands-on tech demos, and high-impact networking designed to unlock opportunity across the state.

This year, we are curating deep-dive content across three critical pillars driving our economy:

🏢 Enterprise Technology. How Ohio’s biggest brands are leading in innovation. Discover how established enterprises are leveraging areas such as AI, data analytics, and cloud infrastructure to drive digital transformation. Hear from CIOs and CTOs on navigating emerging technologies and integrating deep tech into legacy systems.

🚀 Startups & Venture. Zero to one. Built in Ohio. A dedicated focus on high-growth entrepreneurship. We explore the cultures that scale fast, the state of startups in the Silicon Heartland, and the founder journey. This track features the OhioX Startup Showcase, highlighting some of our state's most innovative new companies.

🧑‍💻 Talent & Workforce. Technology is nothing without the people behind it. This track brings together tech leaders, educators, and policymakers to discuss upskilling, culture building, and the strategies needed to attract, retain, and develop top-tier tech talent in Ohio.

• Tech Executives, CIOs, CTOs, etc.: Connect with peers and explore emerging trends.
• Founders & Investors: Find your next partner, customer, or deal.
• Policymakers & Civic Leaders: Engage with the builders of the digital economy.
• Talent & Students: Meaningful networking with potential employers.

Brought to you by OhioX, the Ohio Tech Summit presented by Verizon is a full day of content and experiences where Ohio tech shows-off and features high-profile speakers, tech demos, and networking. Tech pros from across Ohio (and beyond) attend the Summit.
