🌟 TECH NEWS! 🌟
🚀 TechChicago Week is back, highlighting Pritzker's crowning achievements at yesterday's Morning Press Conference! From quantum testing campuses to EV manufacturing, Illinois and Chicago are experiencing tremendous job growth in 2024. Chicago's tech scene has faced challenges, but our tech sector is thriving again thanks to new advancements.
"Tech Week is important to Chicago," says Tifair Hamed Chief Marketing Officer of P33. "We want to showcase our tech ecosystem to attract funding, talent, and founders." Opening night features Gov. JB Pritzker, who's secured federal funding for quantum tech and boosted biotech and EV manufacturing in Illinois. His presence underscores his commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship.
Since 2012, investments have turned Chicago into a tech hub, with giants like Google and Facebook setting up shop. TechChicago Week offers a chance to reconnect and reignite our tech community. Tech workers comprise almost 10% of Chicago's workforce, but diversity remains a challenge. We aim to address this and build on our momentum.
