Mission Statement

Dedicated to Growth, Committed to Action

The Massachusetts High Technology Council is a non-profit, non-partisan corporation whose membership is comprised of respected business leaders of Massachusetts high technology and high-value-added service companies.

Through membership in the Council, our members are able to accomplish one of their most important external responsibilities in an efficient and cost-effective way. That responsibility is:

to help make Massachusetts the world's most attractive place in which to live and work, and in which to create, operate and expand high technology businesses.

With more than 30 years of experience, we have acquired and developed the skills and earned the respect necessary to achieve the annual public policy objectives that our members set each year, dealing with fiscal, education, health care, transportation, environmental, utility industry regulation, and other industry-specific public policy issues in Massachusetts and in Washington, DC.

Because we hold no political affiliation, the Council is free to focus on any public policy or industry issue that affects the Massachusetts economy, and to take a firm leadership role in instituting change wherever it is needed. By acting on issues that our members know to be critical to their success, we have become a leading political force in Massachusetts.

The High Tech Council is our membership, and our effectiveness is strengthened when Massachusetts business leaders work together, focusing their collective public policy energy and effort through membership in the Massachusetts High Technology Council.
