“A Seismic SHIFT”
CLOSE IT 2027
A NEW WORKFORCE ERA IS HERE
A NEW WORKFORCE ERA IS HERE
Every major economic era has been defined by a workforce.
The Agricultural Age needed farmers.
The Industrial Age needed factory workers.
The Information Age needed knowledge workers.
The AI Economy will be powered by technicians.
The question isn't whether the Technician Economy™ is coming.
The question is whether our communities will lead it, or chase it.
CLOSE IT SUMMIT 2027 IS COMMITTED TO HELP LEAD IT.
Close It will articulate that Innovation and AI do not deploy themselves.
Someone has to:
Build it. Maintain it. Install it. Secure it. Repair it. Operate it. Upgrade it. Teach it.
Those people are technicians.
The Technician Economy is the human infrastructure behind the AI Economy.
Close It 2027 features the Technician Economy™
THE Close It Summit is being held in 2027 at the Limelight Hotel in Boulder
This hotel was newly built for the arrival of Sundance to Boulder in 2027. We chose this place and this venue because we know the setting will reinforce what the summit is known for: connection, collaboration, and purposeful outcomes.
The summit will bring top leaders from across North America to focus on the tremendous shift we are now facing in our economy. A new era in which AI requires an urgent need for a technician workforce.
Starting in 2013, Close It was the first summit in the U.S. focused on skills-based hiring. We are now the first summit in North America focused on the Technician Economy TM.
Don’t miss it. The shift is real, and it is happening rapidly!
