Rivier University was proud to honor the New Hampshire Tech Alliance at our 91st Commencement on Sunday.

Julie Demers, MPA, Executive Director of the NH Tech Alliance, served as Commencement speaker and accepted the honorary Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa, on behalf of the organization.

The recognition celebrated the Alliance’s leadership in strengthening New Hampshire’s technology and innovation economy, building meaningful partnerships, and helping connect an engaged workforce with the opportunities shaping our state’s future.

In her remarks, Demers reflected on the strength of New Hampshire’s technology ecosystem, the power of community, and the importance of building meaningful connections in a rapidly changing world. She encouraged graduates to embrace innovation while staying grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and humanity.

"The more advanced our technology becomes, the more valuable your humanity becomes," Demers told the Class of 2026.

Congratulations to the NH Tech Alliance, and thank you for your continued commitment to innovation, collaboration, and service across New Hampshire.
