Birmingham Bound is an initiative to build up the tech ecosystem in our city and make Birmingham the place to grow and scale a tech company. We work to bring more tech companies to Birmingham, and we help companies already here continue to thrive by connecting them with key leaders and innovators in our tech-forward, entrepreneurial and obnoxiously supportive community.
