HTTP Honors 2022 “Tech Innovadores”

Each Fall HTTP Honors “Tech Innovadores” recognizing the extraordinary work of leaders who represent the best and brightest minds in technology and telecommunications policy. 

HTTP’s Tech Innovadores are visionary, innovative, and collaborative digital inclusion advocates in Congress, the federal government and within civil society working to advance game changing solutions that promote equity, civil rights, racial justice, and digital opportunity for all. From advocating to diversity and inclusion within the tech business world to working hard to close the digital divide and promote equity within their communities, these honorees have worked hard in service of others.

HTTP Congratulates our 2022 honorees for outstanding achievement and leadership promoting: 

  • Social Justice: Advancing social justice, anti-racism and the fight against racial inequality within the tech ecosystem.
