About HITEC
HITEC (Hispanic IT Executive Council) was founded by senior Hispanic IT executives who have built outstanding careers in information technology but realized that there were far too few Hispanics in the IT leadership role. With a strong desire and passion to make an impact within the Hispanic IT community by helping others reach the highest levels, HITEC was formed in late 2006. These national leaders include executives leading Fortune 500 corporations on both U.S. and global initiatives while others lead some of the largest Hispanic owned IT firms in the United States.
Therefore the mission of HITEC is:
To prepare Hispanic IT executives to be world-class business and IT leaders. HITEC will provide these current and future leaders with the skill sets, professional development and networking opportunities to meet these objectives. Leading organizations are looking for a diverse IT executive team that will help them compete in the current global competitive environment. HITEC creates a great source for this talent by engaging current executives, and promising top level Hispanic technology managers, in a forum that allows them to share their experiences, develop approaches to fill the pipeline, and increase the presence of Hispanic IT managers in executive circles.
