Save the date: 7- 11 September 2026

Glasgow Tech Week is back for 2026! Now in its third year we are delighted to announce that our event application portal is open and we’re looking forward to receiving your event submissions.

Last year, Glasgow Tech Week comprised of more than 40 events, over 3,000 attendees and we partnered with more than 80 innovation ecosystem partners including techUK, BAFTA, Shepherd and Wedderburn, NHS Scotland, IBM, Accenture, JPMorganChase, Barclays and KPMG.

During Glasgow Tech Week 2025 there was a wide variety on offer, from cutting-edge demos and panel discussions to networking receptions and skills workshops, bringing the city alive with ideas, energy and opportunity.

This year we are looking to include even more sector-leading, innovative events across the tech, digital and creative. Submissions are currently closed for events for this year's Glasgow Tech Week, subscribe to our newsletter to keep up to date on any changes.
