2019 TECH SUMMIT
![]() Our 6th Annual Tech Summit was held on February 4-5, 2019 at the GranTree Inn in Bozeman, Montana. Participants raved about the high-quality content and networking opportunities, and we hope you'll join us again at the next Tech Summit in February 2022, dates TBD. ![]() A few notes about the 2019 Tech Summit:
Our annual Tech Summit is a great opportunity to network with teachers, administrators, technology directors, and other school leaders from all across the state. Our hope is to provide an array of presentations showing all aspects of school technology (infrastructure / IT, leadership, and instructional) that will interest and engage our target audience of school professionals. Our 2019 keynote was Jaime Casap, Global Education Evangelist at Google, Inc. (yes, GOOGLE). Jaime evangelizes the power and potential of the web, technology, and Google tools as enabling and supporting capabilities in pursuit of creating powerful learning models. In eight years at Google, Jaime was part of the original team that launched Google Apps for universities, launched Google Apps into K12, and helped get Chromebooks off the ground and into schools. Today he is responsible for working across all internal teams that impact education, and he works with educational organizations around the world, helping them find ways to improve the quality of education through the use of technology. Born and raised as a first generation American to a single mother on welfare in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City, Jaime understands and appreciates the power education has on changing the destiny of a family in just one generation. In addition to his role at Google, Jaime serves on the Arizona Science Foundation Board of Directors, on the Board of Directors for New Global Citizens, and serves in advisory roles to dozens of organizations focused on improving education. Jaime is a Faculty Associate at Arizona State University, where he teaches guest lectures.
