SUMMARY:Special Virtual Tech Industry Luncheon Presentation - Feb 24
DESCRIPTION:Can technology resist Status Quo for the underserved   YES\, It can! \n\nMichael Pegues\, CIO\, City of Aurora\, Illinois and Vice Chair Quad County African American Chamber of Commerce\n\nTanya Hannah\, CIO\, North America for AON Corporation.\n\nKimberly W. LaGrue\, CIO\, City of New Orleans\, Louisiana\n\nModerator:  E.G. Nadhan\, Global Chief Architect Leader\, CTO Organization\, Red Hat\n\n\n\n"Lack of access to technology." "Equitable access to technology." "Adequate accommodation through technology." Phrases like these speak for themselves when highlighting why many in the underserved communities across the country lack the tools to simply log onto the Internet. It may be due to the lack of infrastructure or equipment\, but more importantly\, it may just be an acceptance of the way things are. If we are to justifiably address the needs of the underserved\, then we\, as a society must boldly resist the status quo. These CIOs from the public and private sectors across the U.S. are leaders who have challenged the system and in turn\, positioned technology to better enable the communities they serve better. Listen to their stories and engage in dialog with these fine leaders in this special virtual session where Tech Titans salutes Black History Month 2023!
