NOT YOUR AVERAGE STEM ORGANIZATION


Greater Than Tech (GTT) is reaching to levels beyond STEM to build the next generation of diverse technology business leaders. We instill the importance of self-efficacy, STEM entrepreneurship and social impact in all our programming. We provide the following components for all our students to have the confidence to define their own path in tech:

  • Workshops
  • Demo Days
  • Development Programs
  • Training

Our Why

19% 19%

Educate

Black and Hispanic students earn fewer than 19% of STEM bachelor's degrees.

1% 1%

Advocate

Fewer than 1% of and .5% of leadership positions in tech are held by Latinx and Black women respectively.

4% 4%

Empower

In the U.S., women of color make up just 4% of small business technology leaders.

GTT Community Programs

We deliver our GTT program curriculum to our community partners who already serve students from underestimated communities within the region. We developed a Community Robotics Program for schools and organizations who did not have or had little to no access to robotics. This is an 11-week afterschool program where students design, build, and code robots, while also developing a business pitch.

GTT Alumnae Club

Self-efficacy is critical when it comes to achieving seemingly difficult goals for the first time. We understand the impact this has on girls pursuing STEM. Outside of our curriculum programs, we provide mentorship, college and tech industry tours, guest speakers, and homework help to middle and high school girls

What's The Uncommon? What's The Uncommon?


Oftentimes, women of color in tech spaces and especially in technical leadership positions are considered “unicorns”. We want to dispel that fairytale!
Let’s normalize women of color in tech instead of further isolating them.

TAKING TECH TRAINING INTO
OUR OWN HANDS

A handful of entry-level data analysts is just a drop in the talent bucket, even for most mid-size companies with an average IT footprint. But, in a tight market for tech workers, every little bit helps.

Testimonies

“The name says it all. Greater than Tech and its founder’s Jasmine LeFlore and Brittany Wheeler, bring a unique and needed perspective to STEM enrichment programs.”

Charlene Brown – Development Director, Elementary Institute of Science
“Through partnerships with industry and non-profits, such as Greater Than Tech, we are able to provide participants with valuable life lessons in a fun and interactive environment.”

Valerie Hash – Implementation Manager, Junior Achievement

“My daughter enjoyed Girl Meets Drone. She was delighted to work with girls just like her who had an interest in coding. The program gave her the opportunity to apply the coding skills she had in a practical business environment. She was also surprised to see how coding related to drones.
She now believes she can build a business as well as an engineering career. The GTT team put together an excellent program that shows our girls a pathway to not just thinking about solutions but innovating and executing them as well. I look forward to signing up for the next one."
