Technologists of Color (ToC) is a organization committed to building the African American tech community in Atlanta. Our primary goal is to connect tech professionals so that they can share knowledge, resources and opportunities. We also strive to inform and educate the community to help increase African American participation in technology.

The organization was created in May of 2012 and has steadily grown to become a valued voice in the African-American technology community. ToC is fiscally sponsored by Successful Paths, Inc a 501c3 corporation.

Here's a sampling of our programs and events:

• ToC Happy Hour - ToC hosts regular Happy Hour events during which members fellowship and network. The Technologists of Color Happy Hour provides a great opportunity to meet technology professionals in a casual setting.
