If you can’t catch every single event-filled newsletter of ours, there’s a new option for keeping track of all the Pittsburgh events in the tech industry.

We’ve talked before about InnovatePGH’s resource-filled platform made for founders, and you know RustBuilt’s tech event calendar. Now, there’s also the PGH Innovation Ecosystem Event and Program Calendar.

Whereas Tech Compass PGH showcased “vetted” resources like accelerators and pitch competitions, InnovatePGH’s new hub shows event organizers and members of the innovation-inclined public upcoming events in Pittsburgh, and categorizes events according to whether they’re recreational or educational.

The calendar came to be after InnovatePGH Ecosystem Director Jason Griess and Ecosystem Community and Research Manager Charles Mansfield took the time to look through every local tech ecosystem event website to build a comprehensive calendar.

“As part of an ongoing push to highlight the great work folks are doing in the city, Charles and I will be updating this calendar regularly and posting highlights,” Griess wrote on LinkedIn.

You could find information on a lecture series such as BioBreakfast or learn about the upcoming Oakland Business Mixer on the platform. And if you have an event you think deserves to be featured, reach out to Mansfield by emailing cm@innovatepgh.com.
