Milwaukee Tech Events 2/13/26 (Copy)

I genuinely love writing this event newsletter every Friday.

It’s more than a list, it’s an excuse for us to gather. A reminder that we’re not building alone. That there’s a real, living, breathing tech community here in Milwaukee.

And right now, showing up matters.

More than ever, we need reasons to be in the same room. To shake hands. To argue about ideas over a coffee or a beer (a Manhattan??). To hug and celebrate launches, lessons, and time together.

So here’s what I’m excited about over the next ten days. A couple of chances for us to come together and build something.

FOUNDER/FEST

Tuesday, February 17, 2026 from 6:00pm - 9:00pm at Northern Ground

Some of my all time favorite people at the Midwest Founders Community run this event and I noticed founder Kristin Isaac from Strudelbots will be presenting. She’s the real deal.

Must attend type of event if you’re a founder or anyone who supports them.

CISO as a Strategic Business Influencer

Wednesday February 18, 2026 from 2:00pm - 6:00pm at the Brookfield Conference Center
