This is the perfect scenario for Executive Director Lasse Ingebretsen who says, “Technology plus art equals innovation. By adding funding to this mix you create business revenue.”

Ingebretsen’s goal is to bring 115 small tech companies to downtown Elgin by 2015, putting the area on the map as a true national resource center for innovation and tech development.

Tracie Pannell, the Technical Recruiter for the center invites those interested in starting a technical business to attend the Tech Academy open house September 20, 2011 from 1-4 PM.
