Tech Rising Summit
Today is the 3rd Annual Tech Rising Summit being held at the AvidXchange headquarters. Over the past 2 years this summit has brought together over 250 attendees and provided over $68K in seed funding to local nonprofits for grants that test out innovative new programs to foster digital inclusion.
Tech Rising, an initiative led by the AvidXchange Foundation in partnership with 30+ local corporations, strives to bridge the digital divide in Charlotte through strategic engagement with the Center for Digital Equity, as well as other local government, academic and nonprofit partnerships.
The second annual Tech Rising Summit is being held at the AvidXchange headquarters on April 6th and is presented by the AvidXchange Foundation and Equitable Foundation. This groundbreaking initiative brings together corporate partners, strategic partners and local nonprofits all to create digital equity in our community.
Tech Rising, an initiative founded by AvidXchange, was created with the goal of helping to eliminate the digital divide and foster digital inclusion here in Charlotte. The initiative launched last summer and AvidXChange hosted their first Tech Rising Virtual Summit in partnership with SHARE Charlotte on February 25, 2021.
