Last week, we brought Georgia’s innovation community together for the Georgia Technology Summit—and the energy in the room said everything.
Artificial intelligence is no longer a question of if or even how—it’s happening. At scale. Across industries. And right here in Georgia, companies are moving from exploration to execution in real, measurable ways.
That was the throughline of this year’s theme—Innovation Unleashed: Navigating the Intelligence Frontier.
Leaders weren’t talking about possibilities. They were sharing what they’re building, what’s working, and where they’re investing next. From enterprise deployments to emerging companies shaping entirely new categories, the level of momentum across this ecosystem is undeniable.
We also had the opportunity to recognize the leaders helping drive that momentum forward. Scott Voigt was inducted into the Georgia Technology Hall of Fame, and Rachel Mines was honored with the Impact Award—both reflecting the kind of leadership and innovation that continue to shape Georgia’s technology ecosystem.
The Georgia Technology Summit is a reflection of something bigger—an ecosystem that continues to grow stronger, more connected, and more aligned.
We’re seeing that alignment across the board, in the continued push for computer science education, in the pace of AI adoption across industries, and in the way business, government, and academia are working together to support long-term growth.
Vision 2030: Georgia as a Global Hub of Innovation is not a distant goal—it’s visible in the companies scaling here, the talent being developed, and the leadership shaping what comes next.
The focus now is simple: keep building, keep connecting, and continue translating this momentum into long-term impact for Georgia’s innovation economy.
And we’ll keep that momentum going on June 22 at TAGit, where Georgia’s technology and business leaders come together again—this time on the course at TPC Sugarloaf—to build relationships that move this ecosystem forward and support the next generation of talent through TAG-Ed.
I hope to see you there.
