Inaugural New Mexico Tech Talks begin Thursday
New Mexico’s tech industry is robust and growing and some key players are getting together to talk about taking the state to the next level.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — New Mexico’s tech industry is robust – and growing – and some key players are getting together to talk about taking the state to the next level.
The first-ever New Mexico Tech Talks event kicks off Thursday morning. Organizers describe it as a “South-by-Southwest”-style event with two full days of presentations and workshops. They will focus on artificial intelligence, climate technology and overall business development, with the goal of getting all sorts of tech enthusiasts – college students, startup found, lawmakers, venture capitalists and the like – under one roof.
“We want to bring people together who are looking at it from multiple different angles and put them on panels together. And get the people who are interested, like the next generation or smart young people, with the people, who are building, in government and funders, all in one room and talking to each other in a way that’s really going to catalyze the next phase of the technology sector in New Mexico,” said Paul Zelizer, the cofounder of New Mexico Tech Talks.
The Tech Talks will be in Nob Hill. They scheduled events to take place at the New Mexico Startup Factory and M’tucci’s Bar Roma.
The tech talks are just part of the larger Atomic 66 Festival in Nob Hill this week. Organizers say it’s a big step forward for the Albuquerque neighborhood.
“As a board member for Nob Hill Main Street, I have seen – especially over the last two to three years, around the time that we opened this restaurant – a real explosion in interest in reincorporating Nob Hill and the business community,” said Howie Kaibel, of M’tucci’s Bar Roma.
The New Mexico Tech Talks kick off Thursday at 9 a.m. While tickets are free, space is limited. You can claim tickets and see the full schedule on their website here.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife rereleased a wolf into Grand County this week after it had traveled into New Mexico, according to a news release.
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish captured gray wolf 2403 and returned the animal to Colorado.
Colorado wildlife officials decided to release the wolf in Grand County yesterday because of the proximity to “an unpaired female gray wolf,” nearby prey populations and distance from livestock, according to the release.
“Gray wolf 2403 has been returned to Colorado and released in a location where it can best contribute to CPW’s efforts to establish a self-sustaining wolf population while concurrently attempting to minimize potential wolf-related livestock conflicts,” said acting director of CPW Laura Clellan, according to the release.
The wolf was once a member of the Copper Creek pack but departed from it this fall.
A memorandum of understanding between Colorado and Arizona, New Mexico and Utah requires that any gray wolves that leave Colorado and enter those states be returned. That was created in part to maintain the integrity of a Mexican wolf recovery program.
“We recognized during the planning process that we would need to have consideration and plans to protect the genetic integrity of the Mexican wolf recovery program, while also establishing a gray wolf population in Colorado,” said CPW’s Wolf Conservation Program Manager Eric Odell, according to the release.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – A judge sentenced a New Mexico man to nearly 20 years in prison for distributing meth and having guns in his possession to use while doing so.
Court records indicate 43-year-old David Amaya sold meth from a trailer on his parents’ property in Anthony throughout July and August 2024. Agents executed a search warrant Aug. 22 and found 1.18 kilograms of meth, two firearms and ammunition in the trailer and a makeshift bathroom.
Amaya pleaded guilty to possession of meth with intent to distribute it. A judge sentenced him to 235 months in prison.
Once he is out, Amaya will face five years of supervised release.
The FBI’s Albuquerque Field Office and the Las Cruces Metro Narcotics Task Force investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Williams prosecuted it.
