ChaTech’s “Scenic City Summit” Returns June 19–21

  • Thursday, June 12, 2025
The Chattanooga Technology Council (ChaTech) will host its annual Scenic City Summit from June 19–21. The tenth annual Summit will bring together hundreds of tech professionals, students and industry leaders for the region’s largest technology event.

Officials said, "Powered by a volunteer-led committee and supported by ChaTech, the Summit has been both a learning laboratory and a platform to advance the Tennessee Valley’s technology and innovation economy. This year’s program includes more than 30 breakout sessions, workshops and keynote talks focused on artificial intelligence, UX/product design, cloud infrastructure and leadership in the digital economy. 

"Notable speakers over the three day event include leaders in emerging technology—including NASA engineer Arianne Price, AI Strategist Will Haire, Author and Educator Bruce Tate, and Low Code Strategist Charles Lakes II, among many others—along with hands-on workshops, networking events and a community hackathon."

“We’re currently in a period of unprecedented and exciting acceleration across so many fields of technology, and we need to make sure that Chattanooga maintains its position as a regional tech capital,” said Vicki Farnsworth, ChaTech board chair.
“The skills and connections that will be developed at our annual Scenic City Summit will directly impact how our regional technology sector evolves. We can’t wait for another great year of programming, coding, hacking, and fun.”

This year’s Scenic City Summit is made possible through the support of the Tennessee Valley Authority, Unum, Arista, Kenco, Redgate Simple Talk, TEKsystems, the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, M&M Productions USA and DoubleTree Downtown Chattanooga.
