Supporting Massachusetts' Innovation Economy
The Massachusetts High Technology Council’s MassVision2050 initiative is strategically focused on identifying and nurturing key innovation sectors that will drive employment and economic growth in Massachusetts over the coming decades. Informed by our Innovation Sector data and member-led initiatives, the Council supports evidence-based recommendations designed to support the growth of key tech-driven industries in Massachusetts.
We work closely with public, private, and academic partners to foster an environment conducive to innovation, ensuring that Massachusetts remains a national leader in these industries and a desirable destination for businesses to establish and grow.
Our efforts include addressing the regulatory structures for these industries by advocating for clear guidelines and appropriate protections for new and emerging technologies, ensuring that regulation does not stifle innovation.
The Council is a staunch advocate for both public and private sector investments aimed at sustaining and expanding these tech-driven industries, recognizing their vital role in the Commonwealth’s economic future.
