Over four energizing days in March 2026, 26NTC brought together thousands of nonprofit professionals who care about using technology to create real change. Attendees participated in inspiring keynotes, hands-on sessions, and fun networking events that sparked new ideas and connections.
Whether you’re focused on nonprofit leadership, IT systems, communications, or program delivery, you’ll leave the NTC with practical skills, fresh perspectives, and a renewed sense of purpose — surrounded by a community that shares your values.
26NTC keynotes
Our 26NTC keynote speakers are powerful thinkers and practitioners who will talk about technology, politics, and social impact. They are:
Anil Dash – Technology entrepreneur and writer, whose venerable personal blog has been cited over the last 25 years by everyone from sitting U.S. Senators to hundreds of academic papers to TMZ.
Kelle DeBoth Foust – Occupational therapy scholar and practitioner of public interest technology for accessibility and health outcomes for people with disabilities.
Sylvester Johnson – CEO and co-founder of the Corporation for Public Interest Technology, who is also a Black Studies scholar whose research examines religion, race, and empire; religion and sexuality; and the impact of AI technologies on human identity.
Sasha Costanza-Chock – Researcher, designer and the author of Design Justice. They work to support community-led processes that build shared power, dismantle the matrix of domination, and advance ecological survival.
