“Today is about building a place right here in the heart of your community, in your backyard, where you can come and you can dream big,” Adriana Rocha Garcia said.
Gov. Greg Abbott speaks at a renaming ceremony Tuesday for the Tech Port Center, which is now called Boeing Center at Tech Port.The Tech Port Center and Arena, a high-tech concert venue and e-sports center that opened last year on the South Side, has a new name and plans to expand its education offerings after Boeing announced a $2.3 million investment Tuesday in partnership with the Kelly Heritage Foundation.
The foundation’s support of the center’s education programming, developed in part by the San Antonio Museum of Science and Technology, will focus on establishing skills that are key to the aerospace and space exploration industries, including robotics, artificial intelligence, 3-D printing, virtual reality, cybersecurity, visual sensors and more, according to a release.
“Today is about building a place right here in the heart of your community, in your backyard, where you can come and you can dream big,” Garcia said. “It’s about building a place where you can come to see some of the technologies that keep growing right here in San Antonio. These are technologies that are changing the world, making it a productive and a more safe place.”
Students also took a tour of the security operations center Tuesday, something that can’t be replicated in a classroom.
