Advanced Technology
The high-tech sector is the fastest growing segment of Connecticut’s economy – and East Hartford’s. We’re wired for the 21st century with a fiber optic telecommunications hub that serves all of southern New England.
Technology businesses that locate in East Hartford will be in good company with neighbors like United Technologies Research and Development Center, Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology, and of course Pratt & Whitney, a pioneer in flight and technology, and a mainstay of East Hartford’s business landscape for over 80 years.
