Event Description

Basecamp Tech Fest - September 4-5, 2025
The First Tech Conference Designed for Everyday Americans

Basecamp Tech Fest is revolutionizing the tech conference model by creating meaningful dialogue between technology builders and the people who live with their innovations. This two-day festival brings together founders, educators, business owners, students, and community leaders alongside developers, entrepreneurs, and tech professionals for "cross-pollination conversations" that drive better innovation.

What Makes It Unique:

  • OpenAI exclusive workshops accessible to non-technical attendees
  • NASA robot demonstrations from BSU's engineering team
  • ASL interpretation and accessibility leadership
  • Career fair connecting local talent with Idaho's growing tech sector
  • Programming camps spanning Tech, Business, Creativity, and the Northstar Hackathon

Why Boise, Why Now: Positioned in the #2 fastest-growing tech hub in America, Basecamp demonstrates how innovation can stay connected to community values while fostering genuine technological advancement.

Partnership Opportunity: The festival features dedicated workforce development programming and career fair opportunities, perfectly aligned with Idaho Tech Council's mission to grow Idaho's technology ecosystem and connect local talent with expanding opportunities.
