Washington State. Leading the way in IoT.
With its leadership in artificial intelligence, machine learning, quantum computing and device integration, Washington State is well poised to take companies to new heights in the IoT space.
One of the secrets to our success in IoT is the culture of collaboration that is fueled by venture capital, bold entrepreneurs and rapid development cycles. New ideas are cross-pollinated between sectors, rapidly prototyped and brought to market. IoT concepts are being integrated into a new generation of electrified and autonomous vehicles and craft and artificial intelligence and clean technologies combine to create intelligent and predictive power grids and storage systems. The latest advances in technology and communications combine seamlessly with aerospace, life science, global health, maritime, clean tech and advanced manufacturing innovators.
Washington’s 14,000+ technology companies attract talent from all over the world. More than 300,000 information and communication workers are located in Washington; top-tier talent drawn to the state by its eclectic quality of life, world-class companies and the chance to be at the forefront of innovation and invention.
Expand your business internationally.
Washington State businesses understand the power of tapping overseas markets. Last year, $41.3 billion in goods were shipped worldwide by more than 12,000 businesses statewide, 90% of those small to medium-sized companies.
An export expert is always nearby.
Exports drive much of the state’s economy. It’s estimated that nearly a third of the state’s economic growth can be attributed directly to exports and almost half of the new jobs created in the state are export related. Leading this growth in exports is the Department of Commerce, which works closely with businesses who are exporting now or want to export in the future.
