Our approach

Although technology has driven the most important biomedical breakthroughs for HIV prevention and treatment, remarkably little attention has focused on how technology can improve the delivery and impact of these tools. This failure is especially striking, given the ever-growing centrality of digital media and online social networking to the lives of those most vulnerable to HIV.

WHAT TECH COMPANIES CAN OFFER  

The technology sector can play a multi-faceted role in galvanizing a bold new approach to HIV prevention and treatment.

• Tech companies’ products and services can strengthen the

  HIV response.

• Tech companies can help generate new HIV outreach strategies.

• Tech companies can serve as a source of funding toward

  specific projects and initiatives to engage marginalized and

  at-risk populations.

WHAT TECH COMPANIES GAIN  

A stronger role in the HIV response can also benefit the technology sector. HIV is a global pandemic that touches the lives of many, including customers and employees of tech companies. Companies that have engaged in HIV-related work have experienced the following advantages:

• High-impact HIV work enhances employee identification

  with their company and improves job satisfaction and morale.

• Companies that contribute in a meaningful way to the

  HIV response are more attractive to prospective employees.

• HIV leadership bolsters brand positioning.
