bwtech@UMBC is excited to host this week’s upcoming #EquitechTuesday on September 10 from 6:00-8:00pm! This isn’t just any meeting—it’s the first Equitech Tuesday networking opportunity hosted in Baltimore County and we’re thrilled to invite you to see the vibrant synergies this powerhouse of innovation offers our ecosystem. Plus, prior to the networking event at 6:00pm, UpSurge Baltimore will be conducting their Regional Quarterly meeting with the Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESO), so there is bound to be a great regional turnout!
For those who might not be familiar, bwtech@UMBC isn’t just the largest (or oldest) Research and Technology Park in Maryland; it’s a cornerstone of our region’s innovation ecosystem, focusing on bio-life sciences, technology, and manufacturing.
You might be surprised to know some well-known companies, like FearlessTech, TCecure, and Astek Diagnostics, have roots here at bwtech. These success stories developed within the bwtech community and continue to make waves in the tech and biotech world!
bwtech is adjacent and works with the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), an R1 Research University, and one of only three R1 Institutions in Maryland. UMBC has world-class graduate programs and access to great minds developing ground-breaking technology and innovation for space with NASA, the US Army, and environmental resilience efforts. The university uses its place in Baltimore County to bring its research efforts and innovative programs to strengthen local schools and small businesses.
As a premier hub of innovation, entrepreneurship, and business expertise, bwtech proudly offers Maryland entrepreneurs a wide variety of support, including expert resources, collaboration opportunities, and educational programs. bwtech’s distinguished group of Entrepreneurs in Residence and strong partnerships with UMBC, Baltimore County, MD Dept of Commerce, TEDCO, the MD Tech Council, CAMI, and MBIA help make our tech ecosystem robust, dynamic, and capable of driving significant innovation and economic growth throughout the region.
Equitech Tuesday meetings are all about connecting people and ideas, and this one is particularly significant. By holding it in Baltimore County, we’re happy to highlight how bwtech, UMBC, and our neighboring communities work hand-in-hand to drive innovation and growth throughout the region.
