TAO’s Strategic Initiatives, taken from the TAO website:

Strategic Initiative #1: Deliver Extraordinary Value to Our Members

• Our members are our number one priority when it comes to developing and delivering programs, services and connection opportunities.
• We strive to bring together a membership that is diverse, inclusive, equitable and creates a sense of belonging across the region.

Strategic Initiative #2: Drive Innovation & Digital Transformation

• We support and foster innovation among our members, sponsors, government agencies, K-12 and post secondary education institutes and community partners.
• We act as a convener, collaborator and architect to enable innovation and the digital transformation of all businesses in the region.
• While we focus on these efforts externally, we are also internally motivated to embrace innovation and digitally transform TAO to be the model membership organization of the 21st century.

Strategic Initiative #3: Build Economic Competitiveness

• We believe in the power of technology to build an economically competitive region both through tech and tech enabled companies as well as with the service partners that support the industry.
• We also recognize the role diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging play in economic competitiveness and support policies and initiatives that build a more equitable technology and innovation ecosystem.
