SSTI’s 14th Annual Conference, Accelerating Innovation: The Road Ahead for Tech-based Economic Development, offers the knowledge, tools and connections that TBED professionals need to chart a course for success. Join your friends and colleagues September 14-16 in Pittsburgh to examine the future of the U.S. high-tech economy and regional innovation. Federal officials, governors and state and regional TBED leaders will all be on hand to share strategies and resources that can help your region create high-quality jobs.
