Despite that fact that the IT Industry represents only a small percentage of Nevada's total employment, the State has a strong information technology presence already established.
The more complex the business, the more staff are needed to keep servers, databases, accounting systems, websites and more running smoothly. Nevada is emerging as an advanced center for information technology businesses, with promising IT growth opportunities.

One of the challenges for the Silver State's IT sector is its relatively small, but growing, high-tech workforce. The mission of the GWDB Information Technology Sector Council is to identify workforce needs and develop initiatives to educate Nevada's workforce in support of the economic development goals of the State.
