Technology is everywhere, and it’s becoming more and more integrated into both our personal and professional lives. Even if your business isn’t producing a tech product, using the right tech effectively can help you become more versatile, sustainable, and most importantly, profitable.

Tech Enabled will gather 100+ SME business owners, tech enablers, tech lovers, press/media at our annual Tech Show in partnership with the Windsor-Essex Regional Chamber of Commerce. This is your chance to hear from acclaimed speakers, connect with the local tech community to help advance your business.

Attracting and retaining tech talent has always been one of the primary constraints on tech companies but as ‘traditional’ companies are becoming tech companies themselves this is becoming a more universal conundrum.

Tech Talent Day will look at building, growing and connecting our tech talent pipeline including highlighting local tech employees and employers.
