Massachusetts high tech companies depend on the state's infrastructure to keep their companies moving forward. The efficiency of travel on our roads, rails and runways is not only crucial to the high tech economy, but to the quality of life for the approximately 150,000 employees represented by Massachusetts High Technology Council members.
The Council aggressively advocates for infrastructure improvement projects that will help more efficiently move goods and people in and out of Massachusetts.
The Council is also a national leader in energy policy development, running one of the largest electricity load aggregation programs in the country and continuing to remain on the cutting edge of the use of new energy technology.
