We know that the conversations during The State of Atlanta Black Tech are needed. But how do we keep that conversation going in between our big events? At our dinners, in our Slack channel, and in the community, is where they live. That's why you have to join #AtlantaBlackTech. These conversations have to continue to live to change Atlanta. https://lnkd.in/edTJqGY4

What is Black Tech Saturdays in Detroit? Johnnie Turnage: Detroit Could Be America’s Premier Black Tech Ecosystem, But… My name is Johnnie Turnage. Less than a year ago, I founded Black Tech Saturdays with my wife Alexa, and the results have been out of this world! We grew from five people in a coffee shop to over 6,000 Detroiters, Michiganders, and visitors from all over the world. We’ve supported founders as they worked to gain traction, revenue, and capital faster than ever. We’ve also supported over a hundred people in their quest to get jobs, and we’ve witnessed more of our community find pathways into the tech industry, as entrepreneurs, as talent, and as true contributors. It’s rare to see your efforts create so much impact in such a short time, especially when there are huge gaps in resources, but where there is true community, there is an opportunity to make a big impact. Detroit is the city of innovation. It’s the original Silicon Valley; there is no place more innovative, creative, and resilient than Detroit. We make a way out of no way, and because of that very spirit, we have watched our tech ecosystem come alive in ways that has never been experienced by Black tech founders and professionals. Because of the traction, momentum, and excitement around Black Tech Saturdays, we were invited to the world’s largest tech conference, South by Southwest (SXSW). SXSW began in Austin, Texas, as a small group and has grown to be a two-week event often seeing north of 350,000 attendees. #tech #ecosystem #detiptv #newyorkiptv https://lnkd.in/g59xTzTK
