Join MnTech, students and educators, and your fellow science and technology professionals at this year’s virtual event to celebrate Minnesota innovation and recognize Tekne Award finalists and recipients – the best and brightest of Minnesota’s diverse science and tech-based economy.

Our event is VIRTUAL this year!

The preshow begins at 3:45 PM on Wednesday, November 18, and the ceremony begins at 4:00 PM. Watch the premier video below and don’t forget to mark your calendars!
