How is Virginia positioned to compete in the 21st century global economy? How do we ensure that all Virginians benefit in that economy?
Join us as Virginia ’s Secretary of Technology, Aneesh Chopra, shares the policy challenges and opportunities to ensure Virginia 's long-term economic growth, with special emphasis on research and development, broadband and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education. One of the youngest Cabinet members we’ve had in recent memory, Secretary Chopra was recently selected as one of Government Technology magazine's Top 25 Doers, Dreamers and Drivers.
