TEXAS VENTURE ALLIANCE

Amplifying the ecosystem of startup support in Texas.

Be prepared for Election Day, November 5, 2024:

If it takes a village to raise a startup, we can raise a Texas-sized startup ecosystem.

Texas Venture Alliance works literally and figuratively beyond city “limits” as a force multiplier to amplify the ecosystem of startup support.

We co-create two sister signature events, the Texas Venture Gala & Forum and the Texas Venture Fest:

A Gathering of the Texas Venture Community

The Texas Venture Gala & Forum was a gathering on April 12-13, 2024 at the Fairmont in Austin, Texas of our state’s: venture capitalists, corporates/corporate development, LPs, fund of funds, accelerators, incubators, family offices, angel networks, university innovation departments, and chambers & economic development corporations funds. Visit the website to learn more about Texas Venture Gala 2025.

The Lone Star State shouldn’t have lone star founders.

The Texas Venture Fest is the largest startup event in the country, and a proud moment for Texas featuring our statewide ecosystem of startup support. It’s co-hosted simultaneously in 13 cities and in nearly 20 venues with 3,000 Texans. It’s an example of what Texans can do when we act together as a statewide venture community, and serves as the only truly Texas-sized networking and educational experience. All co-hosts convene under one roof at the Texas Venture Gala & Forum six months later to celebrate Texas excellence in innovation.
