Advocacy

advocacy in government

Tech is constantly evolving, and due to the quick changing nature of our industry oftentimes laws and regulations do not keep pace.

CTA monitors these issues on our members behalf and maintains relationships with public officials and decision makers to inform and influence.

Tech Day at the Capitol

Tech Day at the Capitol is an event for tech companies in Colorado to represent the state’s tech industry and connect with policy makers to educate and inform them on your company or organization and the role you play in the overall Colorado tech ecosystem. Receive the latest updates and showcase your company and technology to our state leaders.

For more information, please contact Megan Sparks at megan_c@coloradotechnology.org.

CTA Policy Council

CTA’s Policy Council supports the organization’s mission by educating and informing policymakers on issues, opportunities and challenges important to Colorado’s technology sector and CTA member organizations. Our goal is to promote a regulatory environment that is pro-business and pro-tech, so that Colorado’s tech industry can continue to thrive.
