Economic and Community Development - As enacted, vacates and reconstitutes the board of directors of the Tennessee Technology Development Corporation. - Amends TCA Title 4.

HB 2178 changes the governance structure of the Tennessee Technology Development Corporation by vacating its current board and creating a new 12-member board effective July 1, 2026. The board will consist of seven private-sector members (appointed by the governor, House speaker, and Senate speaker) and four public-sector members (appointed similarly), with specific initial term lengths. The bill also requires annual conflict-of-interest disclosures for board members and limits board meeting frequency to eight times per year. This procedural change affects only the corporation’s leadership structure, not its programs or public services.
