Our Mission
Established in 2013, the Atlanta Tech Village is a community of innovation powered by a 103,000 square foot building. The Village is designed for technology and technology-related companies that have a unique set of needs in their quest to change the world. Your workspace should be more than just a desk and a place to hang your hat — it should bring the community together, promote serendipitous interactions, and be a powerful tool for recruiting the best talent.
Our Values
We live and breathe these values. Startups are hard. Community shouldn’t be.
Pay It Forward
Lend a helping hand, volunteer, make an intro, listen, give advice, and pay it forward.
Be Nice.
There is always time for kindness. We are a community of people who care for each other and celebrate successes.
Work Hard. Play Hard.
We work hard, long hours. And when you love what you do, you should also love where you work. Playing hard is one of our specialties.
Dream Big.
The Village exists for entrepreneurs. We are startups biggest fans and we provide everything you need to achieve your biggest dreams. You got this!
