Why Glendale Tech Week Belongs on Your September Calendar

A memorable trip can introduce you to fresh ideas as well as new places. For US Route 6 Happenings readers exploring Southern California this September, Glendale Tech Week offers an opportunity to connect, learn, and discover the people helping shape the community’s future.
Glendale Tech Week celebrates its 10th year September 23–26, 2026, with four days dedicated to technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Whether you are a business owner, content creator, aspiring entrepreneur, or simply curious about what comes next, there is a reason to take a closer look. Visit the official Glendale Tech Week website for the event calendar.
Connect with innovators. A conversation can be the beginning of a collaboration, a business idea, or a new perspective. Come prepared to introduce yourself, ask questions, and meet people with different experiences.
Learn from industry leaders. Look through the schedule for topics that connect with your interests or the challenges you face in your work. Choose a session with a practical goal in mind: something you want to understand, improve, or try.
Be part of Glendale’s tech community. You do not need to arrive with a startup pitch to bring something valuable to the conversation. Curiosity, thoughtful questions, and a willingness to exchange ideas are good starting points.
For US Route 6 travelers, community events offer another way to get acquainted with a destination. Consider making a Glendale Tech Week event part of a broader visit, with time for a local meal and a little exploring between scheduled activities.
