Last night was DIFFERENT. 🔥
We brought together 60+ of North America’s top tech executives for a private mixer hosted by BOXX Insurance — and by the time the BFUTR 2026 Launch Party opened up, the room was overflowing.
Hundreds pulled up.
Music LOUD.
Room PACKED.
Real conversations. Real connections. Real energy.
Then the headliner reveal happened… and people LOST IT. 👀
This is what happens when the most ambitious people in tech link up in one room.
And that was ONLY the warmup.
In November, BFUTR returns on a bigger scale:
→ Bigger stages
→ Bigger conversations
→ Bigger access
→ Bigger opportunities to accelerate your career, business, and network
If you missed last night… don’t miss what’s next.

What makes the OBSIDI® Awards different?
The community decides.
The OBSIDI® Awards, presented by BMO, recognize leaders whose impact speaks for itself — through the work, the results, and the people they inspire.
As a past winner, Olutoyin Oyelade shared:
“Everything that is measured gets rewarded ultimately.”
From founders and executives to engineers, recruiters, and community builders, this is about recognizing the receipts behind the impact.
🏆 If you’re building meaningful change in tech, it’s time to step into the spotlight.
Nominate yourself or someone making an undeniable impact in the community.
