In just five years, Black Tech Fest (BTF) has grown from a bold vision to a thriving community that inspires innovation through technology, culture, and inclusion. This remarkable journey, powered by Colorintech, has seen our audience swell to over 14,000 participants and more than 20,000 followers across social media. As we reflect on our exponential growth, we are also looking ahead to even greater heights, driven by our unwavering commitment to inclusivity and innovation.
When BTF was founded, we set out to create a platform that would amplify underrepresented voices and foster a community where technology and culture intersect. Our mission resonated deeply with individuals and organizations alike, leading to rapid and sustained growth. In just five years, we've transformed from a nascent idea into the largest innovation and culture gathering of its kind in Europe.
Our growth is a testament to the power of community. From students and professionals to entrepreneurs and investors, BTF has brought together a diverse array of stakeholders who share a common goal: to drive innovation and promote inclusivity in the tech industry. Each year, our October festival in London attracts thousands of attendees, eager to engage in dynamic events, thought-provoking discussions, and collaborative initiatives.
Our presence on social media has been a crucial element of our exponential growth. With over 20,000 followers, our social channels have become vibrant hubs of activity and engagement. These platforms allow us to reach a global audience, share inspiring stories, highlight innovative projects, and foster meaningful connections among our community members.
