About TAG 

Tino Mantella
— President of TAG

It's a new world for tech. Boom gave way to bust which gave way to recovery. Around the world, companies and organizations were forced to reinvent themselves with a greater focus on the customer, sustainable business models and return on investment.

The Technology Association of Georgia has emerged with a refined mission, a renewed commitment, and a new president, Tino Mantella . TAG is dedicated to the promotion and economic advancement of the state's technology industry and provides leadership in driving initiatives in the areas of policy, capital, education and giving. TAG also brings the technology community together through events, initiative programs and networking opportunities.

Membership in TAG puts you in good company: a who's who of tech leaders and pioneers.

Our 2500+ membership includes thought leaders from technology companies – small and large, executives of FORTUNE 500 companies, investors, service providers, government and civic leaders and entrepreneurs.

TAG was launched in January, 1999 with the merger of three of the state's largest technology organizations: the Southeastern Software Association, the Business and Technology Alliance and Women in Technology. At its launch, TAG became one of the largest technology organizations in the country.

Today, TAG's mission is to help Georgia's technology companies speak in a strong voice. The Association helps members connect with companies that use their services. We serve as a liaison with Chambers of Commerce statewide and beyond to attract new businesses and employees…to provide TAG members with information on the legislative agenda that impacts them.
