571 is forTech Lvers

NOVA Tech Day — May 7th, 2027

One day in Northern Virginia for the builders, founders, investors and students who make things here.

Venue and speakers announced soon. One email, no noise.

One day, one area code, a whole lot of people building.

Not a conference badge and a tote bag. A day of rooms small enough that you leave knowing the people in them.

Talks worth the drive

Operators from Arlington, Alexandria, Reston, Tysons and Loudoun on what they actually shipped.

Demo night

Early-stage teams show working product to a room that can help. No pitch decks required.

Capital in the room

Regional funds and angels who write checks in Northern Virginia, not just visit it.

After hours

The part everyone remembers. Small rooms, long tables, real introductions.
