TechRochester is made up of professionals and companies working together to strengthen the Greater Rochester Area’s technology business community.

Our events and community services include a wide array of educational and networking activities designed to support the growth and success of the Rochester business community. Through generous corporate sponsorships from a wide variety of technology companies and community organizations, we’ve been able to consistently enhance our area’s standing as a technology center.
