Tech360 – At the Center of Innovation

By

As technology becomes one of the hottest industry sectors in Chester County, speakers from the FBI, Wawa, Cerner, Vanguard, Navigate, SeventySix Capital, Independence Blue Cross and more are about to converge at the center of innovation – the 5th Annual Tech360 conference.

Tech360 is the Philly ‘burbs premier innovative business technology conference, where IT professionals, thought leaders and industry innovators from the area’s top companies cover topics including cyber security defense updates, big data, blockchain, design thinking, Amazon Web Service, IT leadership, and the latest in the local tech sector. They’ll also discuss how to best leverage cutting-edge technology in a local business climate dominated by issues related to Amazon’s expansion and Equifax data breaches.

When:       Thursday, November 16, 8am-6pm

Where:     Penn State Great Valley Conference Center, 30 East Swedesford Road, Malvern, PA 19355

Tech360 is presented by ITAG and i2n. Both are non-profit initiatives of the Chester County Economic Development Council. Analysis by the Economy League of Greater Philadelphia shows that more than 102,000 people in the region work in IT occupations and area employers have added 25,000 new tech jobs since 2002 — equivalent to 25 percent of all net job growth during that period.

Projections indicate that over the next ten years, our region could see 26,000-44,000 job openings in IT, between new jobs and replacement openings as workers retire.
