In a world where technology is constantly changing and advancing, Technology First was founded with one objective: to connect, strengthen, and champion the technology community.

Since 1997, Technology First has been committed to building a community of leading-edge technology professionals. We provide a forum where thought leaders gather to engage and connect. They grow their businesses, themselves, and the future of technology.

For our members, we make a meaningful difference both professionally and personally. We believe in the power of connection. Through events, forums, and every email and newsletter, Technology First strives to give our members content, tools, and opportunity to lift and lead their businesses and our region.
