ATLANTA—One of the nation’s leading technology inclusion conferences adjourned Saturday, August 20, 2022, in Atlanta, Georgia, with the High School Coding Competition (HSCC) team from National BDPA’s St. Louis Chapter capturing its third consecutive world HSCC championship.
This year’s 44th annual BDPA Technology Conference (BDPACON22) and Career Expo theme was “Honoring our Legacy, Accelerating the Pace.” For BDPA, 2022 is a great year for community action refocusing on technological barriers, challenges, and policies facing underserved communities. BDPA continues to raise community awareness as the association explores better solutions with new opportunities from diverse and innovative perspectives.
Increasing STEM and cybersecurity engagements with local non-profits, small businesses, HBCUs, JROTC units, and media remain very high priorities for the association as planning for their 50th anniversary in 2025 and supporting sponsored events begin to unfold in FY23.
