2021 Scoring Tech Talent – An Exploration by CBRE

Technology companies were some of the most resilient throughout COVID-19 and are now preparing for high-paced growth. In Scoring Tech Talent, CBRE explores what markets have the biggest tech talent pools—and what markets are seeing the biggest growth.

Tech talent workforce growth in 2020 slowed significantly from its 4.1% rate in 2019 yet emerged as one of the most resilient sectors during the COVID-19 pandemic. But between migration trends and a new, fast-paced growth in 2021, the best tech talent job markets are changing—and it has implications for workforce and real estate decisions.

CBRE’s annual Scoring Tech Talent report is intended to serve as a resource for decision-making and success in building tech talent teams to fulfill critical business and innovation objectives in the years ahead.
