Testimonials
I find the Arizona Technology Council’s website an excellent tool for staying up-to-date on the association’s public policy advocacy activities – one of the many benefits I value as a member. I’m constantly referring to the Public Policy and VoteTech Smart Guides to understand how we can work together to improve and support Arizona’s technology and business environment. The site is also my ‘go-to’ resource for networking events. Technology is my world, and the Council is at the center of it – they bring together the entire community with valuable programming that I attend as often as possible.
As a state, we punch above our weight in the nation’s race for technology growth and business success, largely due to the work of the Arizona Technology Council.
