Prince George’s County is home to a growing and dynamic tech community—and this is our moment to come together. You are invited to ConnectTech 2026, an in-person convening designed to bring together tech professionals, entrepreneurs, startups, creatives, innovators, and those exploring opportunities in technology across Prince George’s County. This event is more than networking—it is about intentionally building a connected tech ecosystem right here at home. We are excited to welcome the CEO of TEDCO (Maryland Technology Development Corporation), who will share insights on opportunities available to tech founders and professionals, including innovation resources, access to capital, and pathways to growth throughout Maryland. Whether you are building a startup, working in tech, or looking to plug into the ecosystem, this conversation is for you.
