New York City Mayor Eric Adams speaks during an interview on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., February 28, 2022.
Since then, however, Adams' often-positive relationship with New York's tech community has soured in some ways.
Adams' team also referred CNBC to two New York tech leaders: Andrew Rasiej, the chairman of NY Tech Alliance, and George Fontas, the CEO of tech lobbying shop Fontas Advisors.
NY Tech Alliance is a massive tech trade group with 60,000 members, according to their website.
Rasiej pushed back on the notion that Adams relationship with New York's tech community has soured.
