OUR MISSION

Betting Big On Tech is an annual event that brings together Richmond's technology and business community to raise money for the collective future of our industry. Now in its third year, what originated as a celebration of Solvaria's 20th anniversary has evolved into a successful collaboration to support a cause important to Virginia's technology community.

Each year our efforts and your generosity help to fund CodeVA.

CodeVA is a non-profit organization that, through advocacy, teacher training, and direct student programs, partners with schools, parents and communities to bring equitable computer science education to all of Virginia's students. They were integral to incorporating computer science into Virginia's education standards.
