Blacks In Technology Foundation is the 501(c)(3) non-profit for Blacks In Technology (BIT), the largest community of Black people in the technology industry. Our goal and mission are to “stomp the divide” between Black tech workers and to fundamentally influence and effect change in an industry that has historically not sought parity with respect to Black workers. Our intent is to level the playing field through training, education, networking, and mentorship with the support of allies, partners, sponsors, and most importantly, our global members.

We are a team of tech enthusiasts with over 35,000 active members, 85 chapters across the US, and in 20 countries worldwide, all united in our mission to promote diversity in the tech industry. Membership in the Blacks in Technology Foundation is completely free for everyone. As a member, you'll enjoy discounts on technical training, certifications, products, IT services, and access to exclusive networking and social events. Come join us today! Our member meetings take place virtually every 2nd Monday of the month at 7pm CST.

It is a fairly common occurrence that Black workers in the technology industry find themselves the only Black person in the room or the only Black person on their team. Black people are underrepresented in every technology related career demographic, from tech startup founders seeking venture capital, to core information technology workers seeking pay equity. Our goal and mission is to “stomp the divide” between Black tech workers and to fundamentally influence and effect change on an industry that has historically not sought parity with respect to Black workers. Our intent is to level the playing field through training, education, networking, and mentorship with the support of allies, partners, sponsors, and most importantly our global members.
