Vision:

Cambridge Tech Week is a global tech gathering to unite world-leading experts, visionary innovators, and strategic investors to drive growth in the tech ecosystem. It is a dynamic platform for collaboration, innovation, and meaningful dialogue, reinforcing Cambridge’s unique position as a global hub for technology and business. At the heart of Cambridge Tech Week lies the uniqueness of the Cambridge tech ecosystem. It serves as a powerful catalyst for bringing a mix of entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, investors, academics, technology innovators, media, and international peers together, forging mutual interests and fostering impactful collaboration. The culture of innovation and cooperation creates a low-risk environment where high-risk, transformative ideas can thrive.

Mission:

Cambridge Tech Week is the hub for groundbreaking deep tech innovations from Cambridge as well as innovations across East Anglia, major UK hubs and beyond. We are creating a platform for collaboration and dialogue that transcends regions. With a focus on fostering partnerships and creating opportunities, Cambridge Tech Week celebrates a culture of innovation where high-risk, high-reward ideas can thrive, shaping a resilient and prosperous future for all.

Held across 5 days in September, the gathering will feature plenary sessions, innovation exhibitions, fringe events, co-located sector focused activities and take the next generation on a journey with the Tech Futures strand. The programme will feature local and internationally renowned speakers, all experts in their fields. With plenty of networking opportunities, Cambridge Tech Week will be the place to meet.

Michaela Eschbach, Cambridge Tech Week Steering Committee and Cambridge Wireless CEO said:

Here in the East of England, we’re delighted to see Cambridge Tech Week returning in 2026, and proud to play a role in shaping a week that reflects the strength, depth, and ambition of the Cambridge tech ecosystem.

Alongside the launch of the 2026 programme for Cambridge Tech Week (14–18 September), we will be hosting a panel discussion bringing together industry leaders to explore how the UK can continue to lead globally in emerging technologies, strengthen its innovation capability, and deliver meaningful economic and societal impact.
