About Blacks In Technology Cincinnati

Blacks In Technology Cincinnati is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing systemic underrepresentation and creating meaningful change within the technology industry. For over a decade, the foundation has worked to 'stomp the divide' between Black tech workers and an industry that has historically lacked parity and equitable opportunities. Based in Cincinnati, Ohio, the organization recognizes that Black professionals frequently find themselves as the only Black person in their workspace—a reality reflected in stark statistics showing Black employees comprise only 3% of workers at top Silicon Valley tech companies. The foundation's mission centers on leveling the playing field through four core pillars: training, education, networking, and mentorship. Led by a visionary executive team with lifelong careers in technology and education, Blacks In Technology Cincinnati operates with trust and transparency as foundational values. The organization's approach encompasses community-focused activities, events, and outreach designed to establish blueprints for technical excellence while providing guidance and opportunities for members to advance their careers. With a global membership base, the foundation offers complimentary membership benefits and hosts BITCON, the premier conference for Black professionals and allies in technology. Supported by allies, partners, and sponsors, Blacks In Technology Cincinnati remains committed to fostering innovation, visibility, and representation across all technology disciplines while driving systemic change within the industry.
