Bogotá's Tech Events Draw Startups as Colombia Tech Week Returns

Colombia Tech Week 2026 will run in Bogotá from August 10 to 16, bringing more than 33,000 expected attendees and 500 investors to the city. The event sits at the centre of the current local calendar, with organisers preparing venues and programmes for the dates listed on the official site.

Colombia Tech Week 2026

The multi-day programme forms the largest single gathering listed for the coming weeks. Details published at https://colombiatechweek.co/en confirm the August window and the scale of participation. Local tech participants have already begun circulating registration links through established channels.

Smaller Meetups Fill the Calendar

AI Tinkerers will hold a session on Thursday, August 29 at 6:00 PM at Cowork La 97. The group runs recurring AI and machine learning meetups in Bogotá, with the August date confirmed through event listings at https://www.tribulatam.com/en/events/meetup-tech-en-bogota-1-2-455 and https://bogota.aitinkerers.org/. Additional specialised sessions appear regularly on Meetup.com and Eventbrite, covering data tools, cloud services and related topics through groups such as ClickHouse and AWS Cloud Club.

The broader schedule shows most major events placed in the second half of the year. Colombia Tech Fest is listed for August and WebCongress Colombia for November, according to the calendar maintained at https://www.getonbrd.com/events/city/bogota. These dates align with the pattern of concentrated activity after mid-year.

Networking Practices

After initial meetings, participants commonly exchange contact details via WhatsApp rather than email. This practice is described in local networking guides at https://colombiatechweek.co/ and https://www.expat.com/es/guia/america-del-sur/colombia/bogota/37811-networking-en-bogota.html. The same approach appears in listings at https://www.eventbrite.co/d/colombia-bogot%C3%A1/professional-networking/ and https://www.expat.com/en/guide/south-america/colombia/bogota/37602-networking-in-bogota.html.

Organisers continue to post updates for the August and later events on the platforms already mentioned. Anyone planning to attend can check the listed sites for registration steps and venue confirmations as the dates approach.
