Since 2000, Digital Rochester has been bringing technology professionals together and supporting technology business growth in the Rochester community. Since the early days of gatherings at Tonic, DR has expanded events and community services to include an array of networking, educational, entrepreneurial and economic development activities. The common thread in all DR initiatives has been to stimulate the Greater Rochester technology community and industry.

Now, as Digital Rochester enters into its tenth year and membership tops 5,000 professionals, DR recognizes both the increased opportunities for Rochester’s tech community to be a vibrant, high-growth industry, and the realities of the current economy and its toll on our companies and professionals. These “dual realities” demonstrate the very real need for a strong industry support organization to empower the growth of Rochester’s local companies, provide professional development resources for professionals, and to build connections across the Technology Industry Value Chain.  This is the mission of Digital Rochester.  But Digital Rochester needs your help to make it happen.
