In this episode Thom Singer talks to leaders of Technology
Councils across the United States and Canada to hear what is
happening in their regions and what they are doing to prepare for
the future.
Oftentimes we examine what is happening in the tech world
in the Silicon Valley, but we may not always be thinking about how
tech companies (local homegrown companies and large international
organizations) are impacting every city and state around the
world.
Thom spent three days at the TECNA Summer Conference in
Seattle last week and spent time with the leaders of over 50
technology councils from cities of all sizes. He interviewed
many of them in short 3-4 minute conversations for this episode of
"Austin Tech Connect".
Please enjoy this virtual dialogue with people from some tech
centers you know, and some you may not have thought about as being
active leaders in the growth of the tech sector across North
America.
ATC is happy to introduce our local member companies to the
technology councils in any other part of North America. If
you are doing business, or would like to do business, within other
communities represented by a TECNA Council, please reach out to the
Austin Technology Council to be connected with the leadership of
that regions council.
