We are lucky to be living in the technological age.
Technology has helped to make our lives more convenient and efficient, and has also enabled us to communicate better with one another.
The advent of artificial intelligence and social media has opened up a wealth of information that we never thought possible.
These trends are still nascent, and there is much more progress to be made on the technological front.
To gain a front-row seat to this action, here are five US technology growth stocks that you can consider for your buy watchlist.

Meta Platforms also generated a positive free cash flow of US$20.1 billion for 1H 2025, a 16.4% year-on-year decline.
