National Minority Technology Council

Welcome

We are highlighting Minority Technology companies from over 30 different states and 40 districts. The Minority Technology Industry is a vibrant fast growing and viable business segment. The Minority Technology Industry's combined annual revenue is estimated at over $10 Billion. Take a look at our Council District Map View (top right corner of website). It is clear that Minority Technology Companies can be found across the United States of America. Many minority technology companies hold contracts with Federal and State governments. Commercial markets rely on minority technology companies for quality products and services. Minority Technology Companies are trusted employers and their owners are community leaders.

This year the Council has reorganized and changed our articles to include a District formation strategy that allows for District level programs and membership. This move is critical and will allow local member growth and participation. Our fist District event was held in NY. NY District Event

“Clearly our District members will represent one of the fastest growing sectors in the trillion dollar technology industry. By developing local offices we will be able to better link service offerings and potential buyers to our new members. Our hope is to leverage our alliance partner contributions from major corporations to keep membership pricing low, yet maintain high customer services and staff development. The important thing for us is to capture member capabilities so we can easily distribute this information to potential buyers in the Federa, State, Local government and Commercial market.”

Our beginnings: In 1999 Virginia Governor Jim Gilmore announced that he "is working with the private sector to create the nation's first Minority Technology Council. The Council will coordinate efforts with minority-owned technology business and existing regional technology councils across the state." Press Release. This was the first government announcement of the Council. Shortly after our Council Founder and Chair, Karl Cureton, was invited to speak as a panel guest for the National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO) on the Digital Divide. The Council has worked over the last decade with State, Federal Officials, and Corporate Executives to develop parity for minority suppliers in the IT marketplace. The Council has now formed a historic partnership of Minority companies ready to leverage their qualifications and reach.
