The problem is that everything is technology. The wheel is technology.
But since there wasn't any good words to use to describe the practical application of computer science and other skills related to computers, we just used the term "information technology". Because, it's relatively descriptive. Computers are technology to leverage information. Everything related to getting computers to exchange information would be considered technology related to that.
But then it gets shortened to "IT" and just "tech". Networking is "tech", software is "tech", hardware is "tech".
I've come to disregard anything that bills itself as simply "tech". It's smoke and mirrors. You're looking to gussy up something that would otherwise be banal.
