About

Our vision is to normalise black female excellence to inspire generations.

GTA Black Women In Tech, formerly known as TLA Black Women in Tech, is a not-for-profit company. Founded in September 2019, it is the 2nd largest working group of the Tech London Advocates Group.

GTA Black Women in Tech is part of a network of more than 20,000 tech leaders, entrepreneurs and experts in London, across the UK and in over 50 countries worldwide.

Proudly independent, private sector-led, and not backed by the government, Tech London Advocates fundamentally believes that London is one of the world’s leading tech hubs.

Our mission is to inspire, support, connect the tech sphere to allow more black women to excel and tech companies to perform better through diversity & inclusion.

More connected black women and allies

Through our events, online communication group and social media platforms, black women and allies in tech have been able to connect with one another, and exchange knowledge and opportunities.

More representation 

We are one the largest network for black women and have increased the representation of black women in the tech sector.

Job opportunities

Job opportunities, grants & programmes for entrepreneurs have been made aware and broadcasted through our network.

More black female leaders for inspiration

We brought on stage the most successful women, such as Valerie Moran,  to share their story and inspire black women and companies to lead through diversity.

Allyship stimulation and mindset shift 

Through conversations, interviews and podcasts with organisations (companies and VCs), we have informed about the importance of diversity & inclusion and helped them prioritise their diversity and inclusion agenda.

Mentoring

We are also supporting more black women by connecting mentors and mentees through partners.
