Showcase Your Organization with a TechNite Sponsorship 

People networking at TechNite

TechNite, powered by Woods Rogers, is Roanoke Blacksburg Technology Council’s (RBTC) annual celebration of the Roanoke-Blacksburg region’s technology community. The evening brings together 500+ attendees to celebrate leaders, innovators, and companies driving the region’s tech-based economy forward. This year we celebrate 26 years of this incredible event. Attendees can expect an evening recognizing award winners and innovators in the regional ecosystem! 

RBTC’s TechNite is the flagship event for the Roanoke Blacksburg innovation community. It gathers leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, educators, and technologists together under one roof for an evening of celebration, meaningful connection, and inspiration. This year, the magic happens May 7 at the iconic Hotel Roanoke and Conference Center. 

“By sponsoring TechNite, you’re not just showing up—you’re fueling the growth of a thriving tech ecosystem and helping bold ideas move from concept to reality,” said RBIA Director of Development and Partnerships Suzanne Gardner.  

“Your support creates meaningful connections between founders, investors, and industry leaders and strengthens these relationships that drive innovation forward. It also ensures that our region continues to be a place where great ideas are supported, scaled, and celebrated.” 

Roanoke Blacksburg is home to more than 4,000 technology professionals, and RBTC is comprised of 250 member organizations across the region. Together, this strong network of companies and organizations connected through RBTC offers dynamic opportunities for career growth and collaboration. That connectedness cements the region’s reputation as a hub for commercialization.
