Technology and economic development in Pittsburgh's communities of color

Technical.ly connects and challenges a community of technologists and entrepreneurs invested in where they live. Founded in 2009, this newsroom reports in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Delaware, DC and Pittsburgh, with a mission to cover the intersections of the tech economy, entrepreneurship and equity. It emphasizes accessible, non-paywalled coverage that serves as a bridge between the tech sector and underserved communities.

Technical.ly is a major part of narrating economic change for the communities we serve. We’re interested in second and third tier regional economies. We've reported on each of our communities for five or more years, the longest being Philadelphia for a decade. Our reporters are trained to be deeply ingrained in the communities we serve, while also holding perspective from around other local economies. We are read by serious technologists, experienced entrepreneurs and economic development leaders who allocate resources among constituencies.
