During his keynote at a recent conference, Gov. Wes Moore offered a version of his usual praise for Maryland’s founders.
“Entrepreneurship is the backbone of the economy,” he said in a conversation with Troy LeMaile-Stoval, the CEO of TEDCO.
The remarks from one of the innovation economy’s highest-profile boosters underscored the optimistic mood at TEDCO’s latest Entrepreneur Expo, which returned after a five-year hiatus to bring more than 100 speakers, over 80 exhibitors and attendees from as far as Singapore to the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel earlier this month.
The Maryland-backed investment vehicle organized panels and presentations into five tracks: leading innovation to market, cultivating the ecosystem of tomorrow, forging Maryland’s tech frontier, scaling innovation beyond borders, and fast track to federal resources.
