About Us

The New York Technology Council (NYTECH) is a New York City-based association dedicated to the furtherance of the technology industry.

Our mission is to help promote New York as a world-class center of technology excellence by improving coordination between business, state and local governments and academia. NYTECH conducts regular member meetings at which we present speakers and panel discussions on topics of importance to our members. In addition to our member meetings, we operate several special interest groups on specific topics related to our organizational mission. NYTECH also conducts other activities and programs such as a university internship program, sponsor-led breakfast discussions, venture capital roundtables, networking events, joint activities with other area organizations and social gatherings.
