YOU REALLY JUST HAD TO BE THERE.
The biggest question we’re hearing is: “When’s the next one happening?”
Until now the last Vancouver Tech Crawl was in 2018. Then COVID shut it down, and it seemed like this incredible night might be gone for good.
Well, on October 21, 2026 we brought the crawl back! It was so well-received and attended that we’re making it more than just an annual event. Sign up below and you’ll hear about it first!
In the meantime, we’re more excited than ever for the future of startups in Southwestern Washington.
Check out our events, learn more about our strategic founder programs, and come co-work with us!
Everyone said “Yes”.
You said yes before there was anything to point to. No tickets sold. No photos from last year. Just an idea that SW Washington’s tech companies belong on Main Street, not hidden in office parks off the freeway.
You got it right away. A town only knows its tech companies if it can meet them. And the people who will build the next company here need to see the ones already doing it.
So you put money on the table and people behind it. You sent engineers and founders downtown after a full workday. You packed up wafers, scanners and demos, carried them into a pub, and explained what you build to anyone who walked up.
You didn’t do it to hire anyone or close a deal that night. You did it because Vancouver should know what’s being made here.
That’s why the crawl came back.
A CHOOSE YOUR OWN CRAWL ADVENTURE.
THREE HOURS. ONE MAP. INFINITE POSSIBILITIES.
KICKOFF AT DIGS
Everyone checked in, grabbed a map, and picked a direction that looked interesting to them.
WALK THE COUVE
Attendees picked stops in any order. Every table had a company, and every company had a story.
FINISH AT LOYAL LEGION
The crawl ended. The conversations didn't. Everyone landed on one patio to keep going.
LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE IS COMING!
The next crawl is September 2027. Between now and then, we run events all year for SW Washington's founders, techies and the people who back them. Sign up and you'll hear first when crawl tickets open, which companies are coming, and what else is on the North Bank calendar.
