JTDA unveils new exec

The Jamaica Technology and Digital Alliance (JTDA), formerly Jamaica Computer Society, a leading advocate for the ICT community and a pillar in the Jamaican technology landscape, has named its new executive marking the beginning of a renewed journey towards innovation, empowerment, and community engagement.

The organisation remains committed to its mission of access, influence, and empowerment within the ICT community.

In 2024, the JTDA will embarks on a series of initiatives designed to fortify the community and foster digital innovation.

The ‘My Membership Matters’ campaign aims to strengthen community bonds, while the Member Plus program, in collaboration with BCS, the Chartered Institute of IT, enhances membership benefits.

The Jamaica Cyber Skills Initiative and the Tech Alliance Fund Crowdfunding Platform are set to provide pivotal support for tech projects and digital skills development. Additionally, the annual BizTech Conference, aligning with JTDA’s 40th anniversary, will convene industry leaders and visionaries, reinforcing the organisation’s role at the forefront of technological advancement.

“This year is not merely a celebration of our long-standing history but a recommitment to driving progress, innovation, and empowerment within Jamaica’s vibrant technology sector,” stated Almando Cox, the newly elected president. “Together, we stand on the brink of a transformative era, ready to leverage our collective expertise for the greater good of our community and nation.”
