Traction Tech Council is a curated membership platform and community designed to help IT executives find and evaluate enterprise-ready startups across topics like data processing, AI, and blockchain. Members can view startup backgrounds (funding, customers), connect directly to vendors, and ask peer questions anonymously to enable frank knowledge exchange. The service bundles a database and community with programming: six live sessions, four Deep Dives, and two field trips to San Francisco and New York. Pricing is $2,900 per year for individuals and $5,000 per year for team memberships (six accounts). The platform launched with about 150 members and charter members that include Akamai, Honeywell, and Lockheed Martin. It is positioned as part of Traction Technology Partners’ broader offering, alongside private innovation discovery programs and the Velocity Network, and aims to lead with education, then discovery, then community.
