Canada’s early technology entrepreneurs faced many challenges accessing public procurement alongside big multi-national tech businesses. They rallied an Alliance to strengthen their voice. CATAAlliance began building a rich and influential legacy.
The leaders formed and co-chaired a national technology board with Prime Minister Mulroney, introduced and guided tax reform and innovation policy over the years, including government procurement programs.
Several organizations have graduated from CATA’s ranks, including iCANADA for smart cities, CANARIE for early cloud access and Canadian Women in Technology, which merged to become Women in Communications and Technology.
