HTH Summit 2026
September 9-11th | Missoula, MT
The Headwaters Tech Hub Summit 2026 brings together leaders, builders, and partners from across Montana and beyond to focus on what it takes to strengthen our tech ecosystem for the long term. Rooted in place and driven by people, the Summit is a space to connect ideas to actions - aligning innovation, workforce, and investment around shared priorities. Together, we'll dig into real challenges, surface opportunities, and build the relationships that help Montana compete and lead on a national and global stage
“The Summit was great - lots of interesting topics and speakers - and the networking opportunities were fantastic. Well worth my time!”
“The range of sessions was excellent, from funding ventures to workforce development. And I loved the innovation highlights.”
“Hearing from other Tech Hubs, getting feedback from the component projects, and the speakers added up to a well rounded and informative event.”
“I had a limited understanding of the Headwaters Tech Hub. This was a great opportunity for me to gain a better understanding of the HTH ecosystem as a whole.”
"There were many great presentations and conversations spanning workforce development, broad-based participation, technology R&D and commercialization, the federal funding landscape, storytelling, and innovative financing strategies"
"Attending the HTH Summit reinforced what’s possible when Montana’s industry, higher education, economic development, nonprofit, and government leaders align. The intentional collision of these sectors, sharing insights, building relationships, and identifying gaps creates real momentum and moves initiatives forward, strengthening Montana’s tech ecosystem."
