About Technology Advisory Program (TAP)

If you are like most business owners, staying on top of the day-to-day needs of your company keeps you very busy. Whether or not you like technology or consider yourself a "techie," studies about entrepreneurs show that you probably don't have time to research, implement and troubleshoot all of the possible tech solutions your company could benefit from. This is why TAP exists.

The Technology Advisory Program (TAP) provides technology solutions to entrepreneurs and business owners from Silicon Valley, the greater San Francisco Bay Area, and rural Northern California.
