Georgia Technology Summit 2023 | Technology Association of Georgia | 2 May 2023 | Georgia World Congress Center, 285 Andrew Young International Blvd NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, USA

Companies use innovation to help elevate themselves in the competitive marketplace. They innovate when they develop breakthrough ideas that result in new products or services that fulfill unaddressed needs or solve for problems. Technological innovations provide companies with a competitive edge when they activate new solutions, designed to fuel the innovation economy and propel their company forward. The 2022 Georgia Technology Summit will highlight some of the great innovations and strategies that are leading the way in Georgia’s vast technology ecosystem. Technology trailblazers shared how they navigate the complex world of technology and lead their companies to successful outcomes. Thank you for joining TAG as we made meaningful connections and learn from these experts on how to Elevate, Innovate and Activate!
