Because of this, many creative, entrepreneurial people choose to locate their companies here to enjoy the high quality of life.        The SLO Chamber is committed to enhancing and further supporting technology companies in San Luis Obispo and has established a committee focused on these goals. The Technology Advocacy Committee of the Chamber is a dedicated group of business professionals whose companies design, manufacture, market, and/or maintain high-tech products and services. Our mission is to promote an environment to attract and retain these types of companies in San Luis Obispo County.   Currently the TAC is working on the 2010 Technology Survey for this year's Technology Forecast, as well as the Chamber's online advertising program.
