Where: Piedmont Virginia Community College Dickinson Building and regional technology companies

Who: Approximately 300 high school students and 50 technology companies are scheduled to participate.

Tech Tour is a day-long event to introduce area high school students to some of our region's technology companies. The tour is designed to expose students to the diverse career possibilities offered by our regional technology community and to help them envision themselves as technology innovators. Chaperoned groups of 12-15 students, accompanied by a volunteer tour guide, spend the day traveling to selected showcase technology companies for a hands-on visit to meet employees and experience the use of technology in unique and specialized operations.

Opportunities to participate as a tour company or as an underwriter of this event are available. Please contact Chris Engel, Tech Tour Committee Chair at (434) 970-3111 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
