The Illinois Technology Partnership is your go-to resource for high tech-related information and advocacy.
Technology is moving at a breakneck pace, but public policy doesn’t always keep up. Government should promote innovative research and development and help to keep the communications pipeline open for invention and investment, rather than hinder it with policies that may not account for new technology.
The Illinois Technology Partnership is the eyes, ears, and voice for consumers, entrepreneurs, academic experts, businesses and others who care about the future of technology in Illinois. ITP monitors legislation and regulation and shares that information with our members, policy makers, and the public.
By working together and getting involved in the process, we can ensure that next-generation technology will thrive and Illinois tech consumers will have access to the cutting-edge products and services they demand.
