With the formation of Tech Bloc in 2015, the growing San Antonio tech community found a unifying voice for itself and its needs within the broader regional business & political communities. After a number of successful projects and community programs, Tech Bloc realized that a sustained, focused effort on recruiting and developing tech talent would need to be made in order to fuel the continued growth of the local tech ecosystem.
With the help of key leaders from the community, Tech Bloc developed the framework of Tech Talent Central to tackle this issue. The driving force of the program is to help attract and retain technology industry workers in San Antonio. Tech Talent Central links tech talent in the marker to companies looking to hire employees. In 2018, the City of San Antonio and Bexar County contributed $300,000 as seed funding to help launch the role of Chief Tech Talent and Recruitment Officer.
Over the last two years, Tech Talent Central worked with tech startups and large companies hiring tech workers, career training providers, higher education institutions, and other workforce development organizations. Tech Bloc board member Erin Wilbanks, who steered CTRO search committee and directs recruiting and business development at H-E-B, now heads the effort with support from Tech Bloc Director of Operations & Tech Talent Placement, Ileana Gonzalez.
