How does #OhioTechDay work?

 

1. What (and when) is Ohio Tech Day?

#OhioTechDay is a statewide celebration of technology in Ohio held annually on the final Friday of September. Ohio Tech Day 2024 is Friday, September 27th.

The goal of the day is to raise awareness for the role tech and innovation play in Ohio’s economy and to inspire our next generation of tech leaders.

#OhioTechDay showcases the amazing people, companies, and ideas that are Ohio tech and inspires students to consider careers in this exciting space.

2. Why focus on students?

Tech and innovation are only made possible by the people who make it happen. And for Ohio to be competitive into the 21st Century, we’ll need a strong tech-focused workforce.

Ohio Tech Day shows students that you don’t have to leave home in order to find great career opportunities in tech.

 

3. What happens on #OhioTechDay?

There are three components to Ohio Tech Day on September 27, 2024.
