ITAG - 2025 Partnership Interest Survey

Want to Join ITAG in 2025?

Thank you for your interest in the Innovative Technology Action Group (ITAG), an initiative of the Chester County Economic Development Council. ITAG is a volunteer driven, grant funded initiative focused on enriching the SEPA tech community by bringing together tech employers to address common challenges – ITAG is not only for organizations within the tech industry, but for technology professionals within organizations from all industries.

Whether you are new to ITAG or have been with us since the beginning, please use the short survey below to document your interests for the 2025 program year. The survey is not a contract or an official commitment. Rather it is meant to serve as a reminder of the many ways you can support ITAG this year; to help our staff and fellow partners see who wishes to be involved; and to help us engage action teams in 2025. These surveys will be used to create a list of ITAG partners in 2025.

Though we do rely on the generous donations of time and money from our partners and partner organizations, ITAG has no “dues” and no formal membership requirements. The only requirement is that you share our commitment to advancing a robust, dynamic regional tech economy with a workforce that is well trained, inclusive, and ready for the challenges of tomorrow.

ITAG might be for you if:

You are passionate about tech & IT in southeastern PA
You work in tech, or for a tech-based employer, and are interested in connecting with your industry peers
You like to learn about industry trends and best practices, such as how to address common challenges like cybersecurity or workforce diversity & inclusion
You agree a skilled, prepared workforce are key to our tech industry’s health and to the success of our regional economy
You like to give back to causes that are important to you, whether by hosting an ITAG meeting, serving on an advisory committee, or volunteering at a youth event to help inspire and prepare the tech workers of tomorrow

If that sounds like you, considering joining ITAG!

Please contact Marianne Stack, mstack@ccedcpa.com, with any questions.
