Pivoteers & Pioneers

Pivoteers & Pioneers features local businesses, sharing stories about how technology helped businesses adapt during the pandemic shutdown.
OpenHub believes sharing these stories can help make a difference for the recovery of our local economy.

Why is a technology-driven economy so important for economic recovery for the Hudson Valley region?

As we witnessed during the shutdown, the use of technology has been an integral part of everyone’s pivot. Most businesses are realizing that tech-driven solutions will be part of our successful economic recovery and future growth. But how to start the process ?

  • Which tech is right for your business? Which form will it take?
  • Who is a trustworthy source for information and resources?
  • Where to get retrained?
  • With what does one start? An existing platform? Purchasing Software? Investing in Hardware? Retraining staff?
  • All of the above?

Welcome to Pivoteers!

This webisode series is a resource that empowers Hudson Valley businesses to exchange ideas about how technology can improve our existing operations. s
Tech may be driving our futures, but businesses need tech that is accessible financially, with short learning curves, and smooth on-boarding.

Hello! My name is Yulia Ovchinnikova. Open Hub is an open eco-system resource center, committed to building a tech-sector in the Hudson Valley.

Partnering with stakeholders, businesses and talent we promote, train and facilitate towards the growth of a thriving tech-driven economy.

As the founder of OpenHub, everyday we work with Hudson Valley stakeholders to encourage the development of a stronger tech-driven economy.

This series is our exploration to discover Pivoteers for the HVTechFest in October, 2020.
We are proud to investigate and showcase all these heroic businesses who were able to pivot and adapt to the new ‘abnormal’ during the shutdown.

OpenHub is happy to produce Pivoteers and Pioneers as our way of contributing to the economic recovery of the entire Hudson Valley.
