Birmingham’s SlossTech shifts to 3 days, expanded programming in 2025
Sloss Tech will expand to a three-day format this summer, taking place June 25 through 27 in downtown Birmingham.
The tech and innovation conference is aiming for more than 1,000 attendees, with early bird tickets available in a few weeks and general admission tickets going on sale in early April.
TechBirmingham members will receive special discounts on ticket purchases. Companies interested in sponsorship opportunities should contact the organization directly at [email protected].

Founded in 2015, Sloss Tech has had six consecutive sold-out events, bringing together founders, investors, developers and tech enthusiasts.
New for this year is a partnership with Birmingham Area Software Enthusiasts (BASE) to deliver specialized programming for developers, accessible through either full conference or separate track tickets.
TechBirmingham CEO Deon Gordon said the expansion to three days will create “more opportunities for meaningful connections between founders and funders while showcasing Alabama’s growing reputation as a hub for inclusive innovation.”
“There’s a special magic that happens when tech meets Southern hospitality—small talk leads to big ideas, and those relationships drive real progress,” he said.
Innovate Alabama returns as the presenting sponsor for Sloss Tech 2025. CEO Cynthia Crutchfield said the event’s programming will encompass all the regions in state.
“This statewide approach will empower more Alabamians to connect, collaborate and contribute to our growing innovation economy,” Crutchfield said. “Together, we’re helping to build a future where Alabama is a hub for entrepreneurship.”
Speakers will be announced in coming weeks. Previous figures included Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk, Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen, Venture for America founder Andrew Yang, Uber’s former Chief Brand Officer and Cameo co-founder Devon Townsend.
