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.”
