ArtsWave Arts x Tech, brought to you by Fifth Third Bank

Presented by ArtsWave at Union Hall

ArtsWave Arts x Tech, brought to you by Fifth Third Bank, is back for its third year, with keynote speaker Doug Hall kicking off the event with a fireside chat, followed by a weekend filled with creative problem solving aimed at solving several arts sector-wide challenges.

The weekend event, following Startup Week (October 8-12) and supporting the startup community and StartupCincy, is ArtsWave's groundbreaking and annual collaboration between the arts, startup, and innovation communities. During these two days, ArtsWave will bring together strategists, developers, artists, marketers, and many more to solve key challenges within Cincinnati’s art sector.

Keynote speaker Doug Hall is founder of Eureka! Ranch Innovation Engineering Institute and Brain Brew Custom Whisk(e)y. Hall will have a fireside chat with Chris Ostoich, Founder of the event concept and Co-Founder of tech startup LISNR, will discuss how innovation and arts come together, uniquely and powerfully connecting us all and ultimately creating a vibrant region.

Challenges suggested by a cross-section of the region’s arts organizations will be addressed throughout the weekend.

At the end of the weekend, a winning team will be chosen, with team members each receiving an Apple iPhone X as prizes. In addition, all participants will receive drinks and hors d’oeuvres at Friday night’s fireside chat and Sunday’s awards presentation, as well as lunch and dinner Saturday, and lunch and hors d’oeuvres Sunday. Team members will receive event and technological giveaways as part of the program.
