Tech Valley Futures is the culmination of a collaborative planning process that was launched in 2007. In September of that year, the Tech Valley Civic Forum brought together representatives from a cross-section of the Capital District community. The fundamental purpose of the forum was to identify and define mechanisms that would “connect high-tech growth and community well-being.” The primary outcome of the the Tech Valley Civic Forum was the establishment of four task forces focused on different, but related, subjects.

On Friday, May 29, Tech Valley Futures will present a one day forum to discuss the findings of the four task forces and to host a career pathways trade show that will facilitate individual conversations between attendees, employers, educators, workforce development providers and the trades.
