Since January 2022, UF Innovate, with the help of SCAD Media, has been producing Tech Tuesday segments for our local television station, TV20. You can view the segments below — and then contact us to showcase you.
Yes, UF Innovate has two business incubators housing startups, graduate companies that have remained in the area, and UF inventors producing technologies, but we want all local technology companies and inventors represented on Tech Tuesday. We don’t want to capture only your technology. We want to capture why you do what you do. You may inspire someone else.
Does that appeal to you or your company? Interested in being featured on Tech Tuesday? Complete this form to start the process.
