This October, as part of the a2Tech360 series of events, Ann Arbor SPARK will present the sixth annual Tech Talk.

Featuring TED-style talks from some of Ann Arbor’s most innovative and effective business leaders, the popular series promises origin stories, behind-the-scenes accounts of technologies being developed in the region, and firsthand accounts of how speakers have achieved success throughout their careers.

“There are always new and exciting approaches to innovation taking place here in the Ann Arbor region,” said Jenn Hayman, Ann Arbor SPARK’s senior vice president of marketing, communications, and events. “Tech Talk has seen a lot of popularity because there are so many visionaries here who can share their success stories — and so many more who are looking to learn as they begin their own creative journeys.”

This year’s Tech Talk will take place Friday, Oct. 14, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Michigan Theater.

Immediately following Tech Talk, the three winning companies from the Oct. 7 event will compete for the chance to win the People’s Choice award and an additional $50,000.
