During her opening remarks, Penn State Lehigh Valley Chancellor Tina Richardson welcomed attendees and recognized the essential role technology professionals play across the University.
“Technology professionals are often the people who make the impossible look routine,” Richardson said. “Whether you are solving complex technical challenges, protecting our systems, supporting classrooms, maintaining websites, or helping us embrace new technologies your work makes a meaningful difference across the University every day.”
The conference included keynote presentations, breakout sessions, sponsor exhibits and networking events throughout the three-day program, including an evening reception at the Da Vinci Science Center in downtown Allentown.
Tech Pros + Web Pros rotates annually among Penn State campuses, giving attendees an opportunity to experience different communities across the University while fostering collaboration among professionals whose work supports Penn State’s mission every day.
In addition to professional development opportunities, the conference offered attendees a chance to experience the Lehigh Valley region, one of Pennsylvania’s fastest-growing economic centers and a hub for advanced manufacturing, healthcare, logistics and technology innovation. The event reflects Penn State’s ongoing commitment to collaboration, knowledge sharing and continuous learning across its statewide network of campuses and units.
