LA Tech Summit to showcase Diverse Innovation in Southern California
From SaaS to gaming, virtual reality to drones, and Hollywood to healthcare, Los Angeles’ technology industry is as diverse as the people who call it home. It’s this diversity – in innovation and in thinking – that truly defines LA’s booming tech space, which saw an almost 75 percent increase in venture capital investment last year from the year prior, according to the National Venture Capital Association.
To celebrate LA’s unique technology ecosystem, Cornerstone OnDemand is hosting the fourth annual LA Tech Summit. The event will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 25 at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica, California.
The agenda features some of LA’s most prominent tech leaders and top investors, who will discuss the innovations, trends and new ways of thinking that are disrupting and diversifying the space. Agenda topics include hypergrowth and scaling, augmented and virtual reality, raising capital, building revenue, healthcare innovation, the intersection between the entertainment and technology industries, and more.
