The Foundation reaches out to every employer in this region to collaborate in achieving the vision of building the technology talent pipeline. Core to building the talent pipeline is industry involvement  - from start-ups to a Fortune 500 - we are looking to you to define your talent needs, and become involved in helping shape talent via internships and mentoring, or for younger students by creating simple awareness of technology as a career choice.
