Event History
The Governor's Celebration of Innovation was established in 2003 by combining two technology award ceremonies: the High Tech Industry Cluster's 17-year Innovator of the Year awards ceremony and the Arizona Software and Internet Association's 10-year “Celebration of Innovation”. With the addition of the Governor's support, the Governor's Celebration of Innovation has become the premier technology community gathering of its kind in Arizona.
The annual Governor's Celebration of Innovation took place in November 2003 and continues to be a colossal success with a growing audience of over 1,200 business movers and shakers in attendance.
