Event

Join us at Michael Best’s downtown Denver office as we kick off 2025 with a fireside chat featuring three of Colorado’s tech ecosystem leaders.

​The State of Colorado – famous for being home to the stunning Rocky Mountains – has become internationally renowned for its flourishing tech scene. With its innate entrepreneurial spirit, strong history in innovation and surplus of independent thinkers, Colorado is a natural fit for start-ups and fast-growing companies. This status is furthered by the great deal of support offered to innovators and an exceptional level of cooperation within the community. We'll hear about that support from three people leading that front.

​Speakers include:

• Eve Lieberman – Executive Director, Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT). Eve will discuss the state’s many initiatives to foster a robust tech ecosystem.
• Wendy Lea – Co-Founder, TechHubNow! Wendy will dive into the importance of the EDA's Quantum Tech Hub Designation and share more about our various Colorado Tech Hubs.
• ​Mike Freeman – NSF Engines Colorado-Wyoming Climate Resilience Engine CEO. Mike will provide insights into cutting-edge advancements in climate tech and sustainability.

​This will be a riveting conversation about where we’ve been and where we’re heading as a Colorado tech community.

​We will be networking from 4:00 - 4:30 p.m., the panel will start at 4:30 p.m. and go through about 5:45 p.m., will have Q+A from about 5:45 - 6:00 p.m., and we will have networking through 7:00 p.m.

​Don’t miss the chance to connect with others shaping the future of tech in the region!
