Next week, developers and innovators, educators, marketers and manufacturers in technology come together for several days to share their best practices.

Tech Week runs April 16-21, with about a dozen events taking place throughout Northeast Ohio. The annual event is run by OHTec, a program of the Greater Cleveland Partnership, aimed at growing the region’s technology-based businesses.

Tech Week kicks off with an update about the most current laws, policies, trends and tips for cloud computing, cybersecurity and all things data. And all-week seminars, networking events and forums with tech tools and resources will be offered.
