TECH cocktail is a media & events company focused on better connecting, educating and amplifying the technology start-up community. Founded in Chicago as a community building event in May 2006 by Frank Gruber and Eric Olson, TECH cocktail has been hosting mixer events and covering technology start-ups across the country ever since. The company strives to help build and strengthen local tech start-up communities both online and off by highlighting the work being done, making introductions and more. During past mixer events we have had companies find employees, co-founders, funding and some start-ups have even been acquired.
TECH cocktail has hosted large events in Chicago, Washington, D.C., Boston, Detroit, Austin, Boulder, San Diego, Barcelona and more, including a full day conference in Chicago in 2008. Speakers included Dick Costolo, Brad Feld, Mike Domek, Nick Fera, Micah Baldwin, Adrian Holovaty, Jason Fried, Gary Vaynerchuk, Harper Reed and many others.
All events are open to the public and can be blogged and tweeted because a better recognized and connected tech community helps everyone.
