Theme 2025

We are excited to announce the official theme for TechBBQ 2025: Build To Matter! Our event highlights entrepreneurship, innovation, and technology, and this year we will focus on the ways we can build together.

Build to Matter: Principles

1. Meaning and Intention

Building with intention means asking the hard questions: Why does this matter? Who does it serve? What impact will it have? In a world overwhelmed by urgency and replaceability, meaning is the rare commodity that connects and sustains us. Every product, every decision, every piece of technology becomes a thread in the fabric of our collective future. 

2. What are we building with?

Meaning must meet material. The tools, resources, and technologies we choose today have the potential to create transformative change. From recycled plastics and alternative proteins to AI, no-code platforms, and new building materials, the question isn’t just what we’re building but how we’re building it.

3. The Solution

Founders. Innovators. Builders. The people who not only imagine a better tomorrow but take the necessary steps to create it. This isn’t about waiting for others to lead; it’s about taking responsibility for the future we want to see. Building isn’t just about creating products or companies—it’s about building relationships, communities, and creating lasting impact.
