High Tech Happy Hour

About High Tech Happy Hour Madison

High Tech Happy Hour is the premiere networking event in Madison. Since 2001, it has been our goal to bring people in the community together, to make connections, and to share ideas. Come and network with local business professionals, meet new people and enjoy the wonderful hospitality provided by our sponsors and venues. On the 3rd or 4th Thursday of each month, at a different location around Madison, HTHH takes place from 5-7pm. We look forward to seeing you there. Bring a friend!  High Tech Happy Hour events are free and open to the public.

High Tech Happy Hour’s roots trace back to its inception in August 2001.  It was the vision of Allen Dines, Craig Parson, and Al Hawkins.  Allen was just joining the UW-Madison’s University Corporate Relations team, and Craig and Al were recent grads from the Business School’s Wienert Center.  They recognized that Madison had a growing high tech community, but lacked a gathering place where those involved could connect with each other for fun and business.  Thus, began High Tech Happy Hour.
