KC Tech Council Announces Comprehensive Brand Update, Celebrates Organizational Milestones

New Era for Organization Starts With New Logo, Updated Website and Relocated Headquarters 

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Dec. 3, 2025) – KC Tech Council (KCTC) is proud to announce a relaunch of the tech not-for-profit member organization’s identity with a refreshed look and feel for the overall brand, a modernized website and an upcoming move to a new office location. This bold, comprehensive shift underscores accelerated growth, momentum and commitment to the local business community and sharing the voice of technology within Kansas City and the surrounding region. 

While the name and mission of the organization remain unchanged, KCTC’s updated brand presents a modern, tech-focused and future-forward visual identity. This includes a new coding-inspired logo and vibrant color palette — a striking aesthetic set for immediate deployment across all communication channels.

“The fresh, dynamic look for KC Tech Council provides a visual embodiment of our mission to strengthen and promote all aspects of the tech industry and support growth across both sides of the state line,” said KCTC Board Chair Bill Graff. “These updates come at a fitting time, reflecting our recent successes and positive trajectory in providing access to talent development, advocacy and education to equip our members with the information and resources needed to be successful in the modern business environment.”

The logo represents collaboration and integrated service offerings of the organization, so members can access personalized variations of it. This allows members to insert their own branding into the logo’s brackets, physically demonstrating involvement and commitment to the organization.

KCTC coupled this with implementation of a comprehensive digital and physical infrastructure upgrade, providing a new “front door” for the organization’s website and social media in addition to new office space.

The new website seamlessly integrates the updated brand with upgraded navigation and efficiencies for members and viewers to access recent updates, events, member benefits and more. KCTC’s move to 710 Central Street in Kansas City, Missouri, is anticipated in spring 2026. The new location establishes collaboration with KC Digital Drive. The facility, currently under development, will feature offices for both organizations’ leadership, as well as event and community gathering areas and potential coworking spaces. 

Further details, including potential additional tenants and the grand opening date, will be shared closer to completion of the property’s ongoing renovation.

“As KCTC powers initiatives that further establish Kansas City as a premier, diverse and sustainable technology hub for the future, our overall direction must reflect the new era of tech we continue to foster and develop,” said Kara Lowe, president & CEO of the KC Tech Council. “Our new look, website and plans for new office space are more than cosmetic upgrades, serving as a true testament to our intentional and focused commitment to the ambitious goals we’ve been working toward.” 

KCTC prioritized the transformation of visual identity as one of numerous steps within a carefully developed three-year strategic plan to enhance the brand’s internal and external visibility. Seen within the organization’s recently published annual report for 2024-2025, the roadmap showcases the team’s progress in tech advocacy, local talent development, resource provision and increasing visibility. 

Notably, KCTC has already completed or is currently working on 75% of the milestones outlined in the first year of their plan to support these initiatives.
