The story of BTF

Since 2020, we’ve convened thousands of technologists, creatives, academics and cultural icons around innovation, culture and identity.

Our belief is that tech is at intersection of culture and identity. In 2020, we brought together thousands during Covid to celebrate the diversity that exists within the tech ecosystem both as talent and as leaders shaping the industry. Fast forward, and we’re now one of the largest tech events having convened 30,000 in 5 years.

BTF is a community for everyone. Our speakers, partners and attendees come from all backgounds as we believe that creativity, innovation and collaboration know no bounds.
‍
We welcome all individuals, regardless of their background, expertise or experience. Whether you’re a seasoned expert, a curious newcomer, or somewhere in between, you have a place here. Our mission is to create an inclusive and dynamic environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to share, learn, and innovate together.

BTF is produced by UK nonprofit Colorintech. You can learn more about their work here.
