We Energize the Region
We act as an amplifier and activator for our region’s tech ecosystem. We identify high-leverage opportunities, convene the right players, and help members translate strategic needs into transformational impact.
Our Mission
The MKE Tech Hub Coalition is a non-profit organization that works to drive catalytic change, resulting in a vibrant tech ecosystem where tech and innovation create enduring regional prosperity.
We foster a vibrant tech ecosystem and enduring economic prosperity through three key strategies.

We accelerate AI and innovation capabilities
We amplify the stories of a tech-forward region
Each year, we publish an Impact Report to show the work being achieved to advance our mission. In 2025, we celebrated 6 years with growth across membership, programs and partnerships.
