About Us

Ohio’s IT Alliance, Inc. (“OhioITA”) is a state of Ohio Edison Technology Center, chartered by the Governor of Ohio with support and funding from the Ohio Department of Development's Thomas Edison Program.  The Edison Technology Centers are designed to aid in economic development in various business areas from information technology to bio-sciences to manufacturing. OhioITA was founded in 1998 and is organized as a “not-for-profit” 501(c)6 with a mandate to focus on information technology related economic development in the state of Ohio.

Our statewide network participates in funding local economic development initiatives in the six regions of the state. We work with our regional partners to achieve one common goal: growing and improving the competitiveness of Ohio's information technology (IT) industry. The regional partners represented in the network are based in Athens, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton and Toledo. The regional partners serve as the local rallying point for their region's IT activities and create the structure for defining and developing projects necessary to retain and grow the industry across the state.

Together with over 1,300 members, OhioITA works with Ohio's 10,700 IT companies, ensuring that Ohio's IT resources are shared, leveraged and optimized for the benefit of the entire industry.
