Expect to Connect: Georgia's Hub for Techies

They lied. "Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door." Yes, it's an UNtruth. The truth is, even with a great product

2011-02-14

ATLANTA, GA, February 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) The Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) thrives on connecting IT professionals to achieve mutual advancement.

"Sometimes I spend so much time writing code and working long hours on company and personal projects that I forget that there are other people like me out there," noted one TAGthink.com forum member.

Indeed, one of the paradoxes of the IT world is that users will often isolate themselves for hours on the computer, when the ultimate purpose of the technology they are creating or debugging helps to connect people.

TAGthink is a non-profit that succeeds by connecting IT professionals from all walks of life. Through TAGthink's services, employees and employers meet, entrepreneurs encounter investors and researchers connect with industry.

The organization offers a variety of events in the Atlanta area for networking, training, and education. One such regular meeting is termed "TAG Breakfast Series," a monthly meeting where experts and guest speakers fly in from all over to illuminate the attendees in a specific niche.

Another recurring event includes the "CIO Certification Series." This five-week training program helps train aspiring and existing CIOs and CTOs to learn tools and techniques essential to success in these positions.

TAG seeks to inspire and assist aspiring entrepreneurs in Georgia and the region by bringing in top-notch guests and industry high achievers. "Why should the Silicon Valley in California dominate the IT scene? We have a lot of talent and opportunity on the East Coast, too," said one forum commentator on TAGthink.com.

TAGthink.com has many online opportunities as well. It holds regular webinars for training on various topics, and members benefit from participation in a variety of forums.
