Orlando Tech Meetup


The 20 Best OTM Demos of 2015


It was a big year for the Orlando Tech Meetup. We held 12 meetups, with 55 unique demo companies. In August we hosted our first themed event, a maker edition featuring all hardware products, followed by Internet of Things in October, and Women in Tech in November. The November meetup also marked the four year anniversary of OTM, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the tech communities support.
Over the past 4 years we have featured 196 companies demo with us, spanning a wide variety of industries such as healthcare, finance, education, entertainment, IoT, and data technology. Out of those 196 companies, 54 have raised funding, combining for a total of over $150 million. We’ve had established companies, such as CodeSchool, PowerDMS, and BitPay demo with us, as well as early stage startups such as HotSwitch and SpaceSplit, that are clearly on the rise.
We look forward to seeing more innovations out of Central Florida in 2016.
