Join us for an exciting event as we celebrate the culmination of this 10-week Techstars Founder Catalyst program supported by our partners, the University of Alabama, TCEDA, and Innovate Alabama. Taking place at The EDGE, home of the Alabama Entrepreneurship Institute we're proud to showcase the incredible progress made by a talented cohort of early-stage founders focusing on water technology, energy tech, solar, AI, clean tech, EVs, and other areas of sustainability.
Get ready to be inspired by these bright, early stage startups as you connect with the Tuscaloosa technology and startup communities.
We invite the Tuscaloosa and greater Alabama community, mentors, investors, community members, and friends to join us as we cheer these founders on and celebrate the end of our program.
