Reflecting on a Pivotal Year for Silicon Oasis

Before diving fully into 2026, it’s worth taking a moment to reflect on what made 2025 such a pivotal year for Silicon Oasis. From co-hosting Arizona’s first-ever hacker house alongside DevLabs to welcoming incredible new pillar partners, this past year was defined by growth, collaboration, and community building. We also launched a strong coalition of ambassadors, bringing together passionate leaders dedicated to supporting founders, innovators, and creatives across Arizona’s tech ecosystem. And this is only the beginning. Thank you to everyone who has followed, supported, and contributed to Silicon Oasis so far. We’re excited for what lies ahead and invite you to continue building with us as we work to make Arizona the next great Silicon Oasis.
