HOME - Orange County Innovation Week 2027

The Innovators & Investors Forum puts you in a room with the people who write the checks and the founders building what's next. With 100+ active investors and 40+ high-potential startups across tech, medtech, and life sciences, every conversation is a chance to move a deal, a partnership, or a company forward.

Pitch to the people who can fund you. Selected startups get direct exposure to active investors ready to back the next breakout company. No gatekeepers, just real feedback, real interest, and real follow-up.

Attend to find what's next. Investors and industry leaders get early access to vetted, emerging companies and the chance to build relationships before the rest of the market catches on.

Part of Orange County Innovation Week, this is a day built for meaningful connections, investable ideas, and partnerships that drive growth. You'll leave with insight, relationships, and momentum that last well beyond the event.

The Tech Innovation Forum is the region's premier showcase of technology and medtech innovation, putting the founders, executives, investors, and visionaries driving one of the most dynamic ecosystems in the country on one stage. Every session, introduction, and conversation is designed to spark what comes next for your company, your career, or your portfolio.

See the future take shape. High-impact programming spotlights the bold ideas and breakthrough companies redefining technology and medtech. Hear directly from the leaders building at the frontier, and walk away with insight you can put to work right away.

Connect with the people powering the ecosystem. Curated connections bring founders, executives, and investors together with purpose. No aimless networking, just the right introductions that lead to real partnerships, real opportunities, and real momentum.

Be part of Orange County’s global influence in innovation. TIF celebrates the leaders and ideas that have made Orange County a force on the world stage, and it’s your chance to enage.

Whether you’re a founder looking for your next breakthrough, an executive scouting what’s next, or an investor seeking early access to emerging companies, you’ll leave with relationships, ideas, and momentum that last well beyond the event.
