company and his advice on building a great culture to fuel success.

The 2011 Tech CEO Forum was held at The Farms in Wallingford. The event began with a visit
from governor Dan Malloy, who had an open conversation about jobs in Connecticut. The Governor
pledged himself to work with technology companies to promote jobs and innovation. This was
followed by networking, a complimentary dinner, and keynote speech given by Dean Hatton,
President & CEO of Higher One.

“Higher One's culture is one that encourages each employee to be accountable, productive and critical
to the success of the company, but to also have fun and enjoy the work. It does this by embracing each
employee and by rewarding, recognizing and appreciating people for introducing creative ideas and
accomplishing good things."

Introduction by Matthew Nemerson, President & CEO of the Connecticut Technology Council

Governor Malloy talks with CEOs of tech companies from across Connecticut about job creation and
the state's future in the technology industry. Malloy's introductory speech is followed by an extensive
question and answer section designed to start a dialogue between business and government leaders.
