Six themed industry mixers across one week, anchored by 614 Tech Day at Fashion Alliance. The convening Columbus has been waiting for.
Sunday opens with 614 Tech Day, our invite only flagship. Monday through Saturday, each evening becomes a single industry mixer with one Track Chair and the operators who actually run that vertical in Columbus.
614 Tech Week 2026 opens with the Sunday flagship at Fashion Alliance. Each weeknight mixer lives in a different room across the 614, venues chosen to match the vertical, walking distance to dinner, and easy to find.
The week is intentionally distributed. One closing flagship at Fashion Alliance, then the rest of the week unfolds across downtown, the Short North, the Arena District, and other Columbus rooms that already host the people each track is built for.
Discussions for the 2027 614 Tech Week summits are already in motion. Same week in June. A full ticketed summit per track. The 2026 inaugural year is the on ramp.
