Your generous support makes this site & DE&I learning opportunities we share possible.
We are grateful to everyone who made this site possible
Thank you
Initial contributions from our industry partners were an important driving factor in the approval & funding of TAP Network’s EDI&B Tech Project by the Province of British Columbia. The additional sponsorship contributions provided to the project since it came to fruition allowed us to amplify our efforts and continue this important work. We acknowledge and thank the government of BC and the generosity of our many sponsors and individual contributors over the past several years.
