Breaking news on SF + LA Tech Week!
BREAKING NEWS: SF and LA Tech Week calendars are LIVE!
You can now register for events: tech-week.com/calendar
2,300+ event submissions across San Francisco and Los Angeles
📍SF: October 5-11
📍LA: October 12-18
People always ask about the data, so a few stats:
-SF once again takes the crown for “biggest tech week ever” with 1,500+ events
-1 in 7 SF events is about agentic AI: 213 events in SF and 53 in LA are explicitly about agents (in the title or description). In 2024 there were only about a dozen!
-There are 124 hackathons across the two weeks, and the variety is huge: everything from hardware to defense, media/creative, fintech, civic/social good, etc. Everyone is a builder now.
- LA, the OG Tech Week (now in its fifth year!), has seriously doubled down on deep tech with 100+ events and lots of El Segundo activity.
Last year, Tech Week saw attendees from over 100 countries. It’s going to be a party.
See you there! 🥳

Tech Week retweeted
"we have no competitors" usually means one of two things:
1 - you haven't looked
2 - or, there's no market
neither is great...
typically the best ideas are being executed on in parallel, even if all the teams are in stealth
better to just accept that ideas are cheap and start building in public, capture the zeitgeist and execute to win

A top SF Tech Week event for those in Bio + Heatlh...
Biopharma is rapidly embracing AI-native drug discovery, which is opening up some interesting new avenues for collaboration.
We @a16z are co-hosting an #SFTechWeek breakfast with @EliLillyandCo to dig into what this looks like in practice.
We’ll hear from leaders at Lilly TuneLab, @insitro, @BigHatBio, Flex Therapeutics, and a16z about how federated learning, biology foundation models, generative design, and closed-loop experimentation can help our industry make better predictions and accelerate drug discovery.
Come hang out with us! @Techweek_ @VanessaBraunst
