Tech Allies brings the heartbeat of the community together.
Our Technology Allies come together throughout the year to focus on making the community a better place for today and the future. Launched in Dallas in 2011 as Technology Ball, we have grown into a thriving technology community that comes together for an entire season of unique community building and networking activities, culminating in the beloved Gala Night. Our efforts focus on building lasting relationships in the support of under-championed communities and initiatives that create the world’s future technology leaders. Top technology executives serve as honored Executive Hosts, as they mingle with senior-level representatives from sponsoring corporations and community partners, to generate new business relationships and strengthen existing ones.

Technology Ball STEM Mentor Program
The STEM Mentor program developed in collaboration with UT Dallas is the true heart of our annual season where Mentors get as much fulfillment from the program as the Mentees. The STEM Mentor program benefits from the mentorship of Executive Hosts, donations from Sponsors, and support from community education and philanthropic partners. Together we bring meaningful skills, opportunities and life experiences to our future STEM leaders.
