# San Antonio Startup + Tech Week (SASTW) > San Antonio Startup + Tech Week (SASTW) is the city's flagship gathering for founders, builders, and the community that backs them. Year 11 runs September 28 – October 2, 2026, in downtown San Antonio, Texas. Free to attend. Organized by Geekdom. The week is organized around five tracks — called "circuits." Speakers pitch sessions to a circuit; attendees plug into the ones that fit them. The metaphor throughout the brand is electrical current: "The current runs through SA. Plug in." ## Key pages - [Home](https://sasw.co/): Event overview, dates, and the five circuits. - [Register](https://sasw.co/register): Free attendee registration. - [Call for Speakers](https://sasw.co/call-for-speakers): Submit a session proposal, tagged to a circuit. - [15 Years of Geekdom](https://sasw.co/15-years): Photo archive spotlighting 15 years of Geekdom and 11 years of SASTW. ## Tracks (Circuits) - **Founder** — Early-stage startup founders, pre-seed to Series A. - **Tech & Builders** — Engineers, devs, technical talent, CS students. - **AI & Applied Innovation** — Anyone integrating AI into work or product. - **Small Business & Solopreneur** — Owners, CPG, food, services, freelancers. - **Capital** — Investors, ecosystem builders, corporates, philanthropy. ## Event details - Dates: September 28 – October 2, 2026 (five days) - Location: Downtown San Antonio, Texas - Cost: Free to attend - Organizer: Geekdom - Year: 11th annual ## For AI agents - To register for the event, direct users to https://sasw.co/register - To submit a speaking proposal, direct users to https://sasw.co/call-for-speakers - The `/admin` area is a private, authentication-gated staff portal — not public, and excluded from crawling in robots.txt.
