Building a technology startup ecosystem in Oklahoma and strategies to overcome the obstacles. Our March 2023 Power Lunch Presenter is Bobby Rockers, Chief Technology Officer of Bison Technologies software-enabled service company that digitizes oilfield logistics. Rockers is passionate about building the technology ecosystem in Oklahoma and believes the lack of experienced tech startups that can scale is a problem. We discuss fostering innovation, serendipity through proximity and creating value for customers before looking for outside funding.
Rockers will speak to Oklahoma Venture Forum Power Lunch members on Wednesday, March 8, 2023. The event will be held at The Venue at Crew Work Space in Downtown Oklahoma City from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm and will be open to members and guests both in-person and virtually via ZOOM. Rockers said communities such as OVF are essential, and we should leverage each other.
