Yachay: Celebrating Latino Minds in Science, Medicine, Arts, and Culture
About this Event
Yachay – Celebrating Latino Minds is TECH23's flagship Hispanic Heritage Month experience, back for one night only.
Step into a late-night talk show-style audience where the format flows through can't-miss science and tech segments. You might even get pulled on stage to be part of the performance!
Walk in for the show. Walk out talking about the power of our brains and the Latino brilliance that has been here all along. Each segment features talento leading in science, medicine, tech, education, and the arts as we explore the groundbreaking work they're driving forward.
This one-night-only, innovative experience celebrates the intellectual and technological contributions of the Latino community, blending educational content with engaging, late-night TV show-style entertainment — live at Houston's Alley Theatre.
It's a show unlike any other. It's how TECH23 celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month. It's YACHAY.
Individual and Group Tickets Available!
Join the VIP After Party to keep the conversations going and connect with the featured guests.
WHY IS IT CALLED YACHAY?
- In Quechua, a language spoken by the indigenous peoples of the Andes Mountain Regions, "Yachay" means knowledge, wisdom, or learning.
- "Yachay" is often seen as a communal activity, where elders pass down their knowledge to the younger generation through oral traditions, apprenticeship, and participatory learning.
- The term "Yachay" has come to symbolize broader societal transformation. It reflects the desire to shift from traditional, resource-based economies to ones that are driven by education, innovation, and sustainable development.
PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE.
