ABOUT 

 At Black TechXcellence (pronounced like Black Excellence with a T), we cultivate a community of Black and Latinx tech professionals by organizing a series of innovative, culturally relevant, pressure free, social events that promote genuine connection among attendees and facilitate the process of diversity recruitment in the tech industry.

 

Organized by the Hip Hop Hacktivist team, this upcoming Black TechXcellence experience will be in partnership with the good folks at MeetUp. The evening will center around an open, honest, and interactive discussion about being black in tech. It will also consist of casual activities that include interactive games, music, food, beverages, and light hearted after-work fun.
