OUR MISSION

TECH-Nique's mission is to create a world where the voices and experiences of underrepresented minorities are welcomed and celebrated in the field of technology and where members of these groups feel empowered not just to be consumers of technology, but also creators and LEADERS in the technology field.

​

TECH-Nique is creating an ecosystem of support and opportunity  - after graduating from our programs, participants are invited to become part of the TECH-Nique leadership team, serving as near-peer mentors, facilitators, and role models to younger participants as they continue their foray into technology.

2021 SUMMER OPPORTUNITIES

TECH-Nique is pleased to partner with KentuckianaWorks and Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) to offer two different learning opportunities this summer.  

The All That TECH Conference for Girls, a partnership with JCPS, is for girls who are incoming ninth graders or rising sophomores.  

The Technology Entrepreneurship to Create Change (TECC) BOSS program, a partnership with KentuckianaWorks, is a seven week earn as you learn internship that starts on June 20th and ends on July 28th.
