We are seeing the most profound shift in the history of our industry. But tech is not a silo, and Techonomy puts what’s happening into the context of how it will affect business, economics, and social progress.

The best ideas can come from anywhere, and Techonomy has proven itself to be an incredible gathering place for Techonomists to have meaningful discussion that propels learning, growth, and change.

Techonomy brings together the people that can not only imagine but make possible the exciting transformations at the intersection of technology, economy, and society.

Detroit was the Silicon Valley of 50 years ago. It was the center of innovation. How do you get the people who left Detroit to come back here? It really is all about talent.

A kid in Africa with a smartphone has access to more intelligently searchable information than the President of the United States did 15 years ago.

Technology creates tools that enable people who may not be PhDs to do very sophisticated work that would have been inconceivable 10 or 20 years ago.

Exponential improvements in digital technologies challenge us to massively transform our economy. Techonomy brings together the right mix of ideas, people and provocation to address this challenge.
