To maintain our role as a global leader in technology innovation, more can be done to create a supportive environment that promotes innovation and job growth in the information and communications technology (ICT) sector in all corners of Washington state. Without sustained investments in the workforce and startup community, policy modernization and accountability that promotes innovation and growth, and cross-sector collaboration, we risk our tech firms and jobs leaving the state.
The Technology Sector Economic Outlook in Washington State and the Greater Seattle Region report from the WTIA highlights the essential and growing role of the ICT sector and tech roles in non-tech industries, while advocating for policies to support the ICT industry’s continued vitality in Washington state.
