THE ANNUAL VANCOUVER TECH CRAWL IS BACK
Wednesday, October 21st 4:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Show up and meet Southwest Washington's tech players
Join us Wednesday, October 21st and meet dozens of Southwest Washington tech companies, all in one night, stop-to-stop through select restaurants and pubs in downtown Vancouver.
Featuring tech companies such as…
…and many more!
IN THE BEFORE TIME
We ran this crawl in 2017 and 2018. Over 20 Clark County tech companies hosted stops. More than 150 people came through in a single night. People found new jobs. Companies found partners. Companies found investment. Then COVID shut it all down, and we haven't been able to bring everyone back together since. Not until now.
WHAT HAPPENS ON THE CRAWL
You walk from stop to stop. At each one, a Clark County tech company is set up with a table, ready to talk. Ask what they make. Ask who they sell to. Ask if they need help. This is the fastest way to actually understand the tech scene growing in our own backyard.
WALK THE NEW MAIN STREET
The crawl runs down Lower Main Street and along the waterfront, through the corridor the city has spent years rebuilding. Main Street Promise replaced a century of aging sidewalks and underground utilities with a wide, curbless street built for people, not cars. The renovation wraps this year. You'll be some of the first people to walk it finished.
IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK
It's not a job fair, yet people find jobs. It's not a trade show, yet companies find customers. It's not an expo, yet companies demo their great products and technology.
From 7:30 to 9pm, the crawl comes together for a reception. Location to be announced. Grab a drink. Meet the other people who spent the night walking the same route you did.

ARE YOU READY TO CRAWL?
Meet dozens of Southwest Washington tech companies, all in one night, stop to stop through the restaurants and pubs of downtown Vancouver.
We ran this crawl in 2017 and 2018. Over 20 Clark County tech companies hosted stops. More than 150 people came through in a single night, and people found jobs, companies found partners, companies found investment. Then COVID shut it down. This is the comeback.
Here's how it works. We will kick of at the Digs offices. Get your map, get some swag and then take off to explore the great restaurants and spots in downtown Vancouver and meet the great tech companies we have here. You walk from stop to stop. At each one, a tech company is set up, ready to talk. Ask what they make. Ask who they sell to. Ask if they need help.
We'll have a printed map to show you all the stops, but also a great web app from Passportage that you can use without the need to download anything to guide you through the locations and stops.
We are excited for you to join us and meet the dynamic tech companies. And if you like parties then join us for a reception afterwards where we’ll have a little fun and relax with the founders, innovators, entrepreneurs, community partners, tech enthusiasts, and great company leaders who make this community what it is.
