No beauty shines more than that of a good HEART
San Francisco Chapter Google Launch
Heart Centered TECH is a business and community organization that brings State recognition, opportunities, and networking to visionary business leaders sharing their accomplished technology insights and expertise to foster innovation and improve our communities. HCT started in Santa Monica, CA, now has local chapters in the US and Canada.
Heart Centered TECH builds communities of heart-centered, visionary, like-minded business leaders, recognizes their professional and community impact by shining a light on the human stories and technologies that grow our economy and improve our world. Heart Centered TECH then connects these leaders to state and local politicians who certify and recognize their accomplishments.
The Heart Centered TECH network is expanded through peer networking and what we call a "social blockchain," where one link in the chain is necessary to finding the next link and each link is immutable and critical to the organization’s overall footprint. Each new Heart Centered TECH Leader is responsible for naming the next leader, and so on.

Local and State
Heart Centered Tech began as a way to verify and authenticate hyper-local growth in the technology sectors within communities by identifying local leaders.
It began in Silicon Beach, Santa Monica, with people in technology making a difference. At events and gatherings, Heart Centered TECH Leaders were acknowledged for their contributions to the technology industry. Heart Centered TECH grew from Santa Monica into greater Los Angeles, then statewide with its second chapter in San Francisco.
At a state level, the program is recognized by state government political leaders Senator Ben Allen, Congressman Ted Lieu and Assemblyman Richard Bloom. The politicians present state recognition awards to these Heart Centered TECH leaders as influencers and technologists making a positive impact on the community. Heart Centered TECH provides a resource for understanding the growth of technology as well as the latest innovation to emerge within the community.
Chapters
Other states now repeat this process with politicians and Heart Centered TECH leaders. As more people participate, leader members grow through enhanced perspectives and greater insights. As more states adopt the program through political recognition, more leaders and affiliated businesses gain visibility. Heart Centered TECH is strong and growing every month with new leaders to share their insights on what heart centered leadership means to them.
