WTIA was honored to host Mayor Lynne Robinson for a conversation on building the City of Bellevue into a global tech hub, as well as shaping it to attract entrepreneurs, businesses, and tech workers during the new era of remote work. Representative Vandana Slatter provided keynote remarks on this important topic.
This timely conversation is highlighted as cities across the country are competing to attract and retain the innovative companies and entrepreneurs that will continue to drive economic growth and job creation — particularly as remote work has created unprecedented geographic flexibility for the tech sector. This has accelerated the imperative for policymakers in Washington to foster and grow the technology sector to compete on the global stage.
Watch the WTIA Policy Speaker Series event from October 21st, 2021, as we brought together leaders to discuss Washington’s future as a global tech hub and the imperative of attracting businesses, entrepreneurs, and tech workers in a new era of remote work.
