Plug and Play Sportstech reposted this
Last week at Plug and Play Tech Center's #SiliconValleySummit, there was a special surprise during the opening session. The audience was welcomed by Michael Olmstead (Partner/CRO) as he talked about who Plug and Play is as a company. Our CEO and Founder Saeed Amidi then highlighted the company's new location launches as well as discussed the organization's vision. He then played two short videos for the crowd. As one of the three new Texas offices, we were pleasantly surprised to see a recorded video from Governor Greg Abbott talking about the significance of having Plug and Play in Texas' "booming economy." We are thrilled to work towards making a significant impact within the great state of Texas and collaborating with its #innovation ecosystem and leaders. Plug and Play has offices in the cities of Frisco, McKinney and Cedar Park.
