Diversity Benchmark Initiative

The North Carolina Technology Association (NC TECH), along with partners The Diversity Movement and Racepoint Global, collaborate annually on a project to define a baseline of how tech and tech-enabled companies/organizations are faring in the areas of diversity, equity and inclusion. The aggregate data provides a broader picture of how companies across the region are doing with efforts to build a more diverse and inclusive workplace. The benchmark data is used by business leaders, government officials, economic developers, and others to utilize as the state’s tech sector is spotlighted as a national tech hub.

2022 Diversity Benchmark Initiative

The 2022 Inaugural Benchmark was based on the aggregate data provided by 12 participating tech and tech-enabled companies/organizations. The participating employers completed two Core Assessments provided and supported by project partner Inclusion Analytics which included an assessment focused on Policies + Practices which captures demographics and policies, and the other on People + Perspectives which seeks to understand the people and perceptions within those companies.
