Leaders from across Kentucky came together on February 8, 2006 to recognize the progress of technology in the Commonwealth. 

Tech Day began with Governor Ernie Fletcher's release of the 2006 ConnectKentucky Progress Report. Additionally, the Governor announces the 2006 Governor’s Technology Awards recipients:

The afternoon continued with key stakeholders participating in roundtable discussions that examined how high-speed Internet has transformed telecom, education, healthcare and local government.

The evening concluded with a reception to honor ConnectKentucky stakeholders and legislators at the Berry Hill Mansion located at 700 Louisville Road, Frankfort, Kentucky.
