Organization Summary:

redIbis is a non-competitive organization that works to foster business, career networking, and educational opportunities among information technology (IT), technology, and telecommunications business owners and professional organizations of color. At present, three national organizations, the internationally influential Association of Chinese Computer Professionals (http://www.gnyccp.org), the nearly 30-year-old Black Data Processing Associates (http://www.bdpa.org) and the fast-growing Hispanics in Information Technology & Telecommunications (http://www.hittglobal.org), are our key strategic partners involved in planning, promoting and co-sponsoring multi-cultural and multi-ethnic redIbis events. Collectively, we share a vision that technology businesses by people of color must thrive in order to ensure a bright future for American as well as global economies. redIbis takes its name from the Scarlet Ibis, a bird indigenous to the tropical regions of the world including Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, South and Central America.
