What is Tech Side Hustle?
Tech Side Hustle is a new kind of program designed to help you go from idea to prototype in a problem space that excites you. We provide the coaching, funding and space for you to be creative and grow. We will help you unlock problems such as creating a value proposition, finding your first customer, prototyping a solution and more.

"The Tech Side Hustle program has been a game-changer for both myself and my startup, Voteable. Our mission at Voteable is to be the leading source for local election information, news, and political insights. Thanks to the Tech Side Hustle program, we have not only gained a deeper understanding of our target audience, but we have also been equipped with the skills and knowledge to elevate Voteable through prototyping later this year." - Eric Elizes, Tech Side Hustle 2022 |
