Tech Valley, NY

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006 · No Comments

I learned via a comment on my blog yesterday from Kim Berry that she referenced me in a story she wrote for Albany.com:

Welcome to Tech Valley, NY:

Have you heard about Tech Valley? Chances are you’ve heard the name, but you may not know where – or what – it is.

Stretching more than 250 miles along the Hudson River, Tech Valley encompasses 18 counties along the eastern edge of New York State. Collectively, government and business leaders have joined together to build a tech-oriented economy in the region.

The epicenter of Tech Valley is the Albany – Schenectady – Troy metropolitan area f NY. Ideally located just three hours from Boston, New York City, and Montreal, this area offers urban, suburban and rural communities as well as easy access to a wide variety of cultural and educational opportunities.

If you build it, will they come? The migration has already begun.

Gabe is just one person who relocated from San Francisco (not too far from another tech-related valley) to Saratoga Springs. According to numerous entries in his blog, Tech Valley really is a great place to live, work and play.

You can say that again.
