About

BTS Origins: The Matcha-Making Debrief Black Tech Saturdays started with five people at a coffee shop table. No stage. No deck. No program. Just founders asking who does what, who knows what, who needs what, and staying until they had an answer. Grand Rapids Tech Week gave you the big stage: the panels, the pitch competitions, 15,000 people in one place. On Saturday, September 19th, BTS Origins brings you back to where we started. Same energy, smaller room, no less real. This is the debrief. Here's what it's built on: Connections. Femology is running the matchmaking (matcha included). The right person, the right conversation, no cold intros required. Conversations. Quick one-on-ones, real coffee chats, the kind of talk that doesn't happen on a panel. The Michigan Black Business Alliance joins us, building a statewide network for Black-owned business through advocacy, programming, amplification, and education. That's legacy work. Content. We're capturing it. Your story, on record, the way it deserves to be told. First BTS or fiftieth, there's a seat at this table. Come get intimate. Come get cozy. Come tell your story.
