History

The Science, Technology and Innovation Commission was founded September 6, 1994. During that time the City of Milpitas was presented with a vastly different technology environment in the new era of information technology services, with a huge expansion of communication capabilities offered through the Internet, cable television, and wireless communications. In order to address the ongoing and rapid changes in these technologies, the City Council formed the Telecommunications Commission. The Commission has since been renamed to reflect the broader technology landscape that exists today.
