THE 2024 ORLANDO EXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE IS HERE!
Orlando, long known as a major hub for amusement parks and family entertainment, has undergone a transformation in recent years. Once heavily tourism-reliant, Orlando has emerged as a rapidly growing technology and simulation center.
Since 2020, the city has attracted a surge of tech companies and startups, with VC investment pouring in. As home to modeling, simulation and training technologies thanks to the strong presence of the defense and space industries, Orlando has succeeded in converging tech and entertainment. With world-class research institutions like UCF and a culture supportive of innovation, the city shows no signs of slowing its momentum as a magnet for talent and investment, collectively shaping one of America's most dynamic rising tech hubs. By bridging its history in tourism with its future in tech, Orlando is writing an exciting new chapter in its development.
