DIA: Building a Smarter, More Connected Dallas

At the Dallas Innovation Alliance (DIA), we believe that smart technology is about more than innovation—it’s about transforming lives and creating opportunities for all. Our mission is to build a more connected, sustainable, and equitable Dallas by implementing forward-thinking solutions that meet today’s needs while preparing for the challenges of tomorrow.

From our pioneering Smart Cities Living Lab to broadband initiatives, we've delivered intelligent solutions that reduce congestion, improve resource efficiency, and drive digital equity. But our work doesn’t stop at technology—it’s about empowering people. By focusing on underserved communities, we ensure that every resident has access to the tools and infrastructure necessary to thrive in the digital age.

To date, thousands of Dallas residents have benefited from smart infrastructure, digital literacy programs, and sustainable urban solutions that elevate the quality of life. Yet, there is still much more to achieve.

This is where you come in.

How Your Support Makes a Difference

• Providing Free Laptops: With your donations, we can continue to provide free laptops to residents, ensuring that everyone can fully participate in the digital world. Access to technology empowers individuals to apply for jobs, pursue education, and connect with essential services, which can transform entire communities.

• Supporting Our Digital Ambassadors: Your funds help us expand our Digital Ambassador program, equipping local leaders to provide one-on-one digital literacy support to residents. These ambassadors play a vital role in bridging the digital divide by offering personalized help with navigating online tools, accessing resources, and using devices effectively.

• Fueling Our Get Connected Dallas Event: Your contributions also make it possible for us to host the annual Get Connected Dallas event, where residents engage with hands-on technology workshops and discover new digital opportunities. This event is a cornerstone of our mission to promote digital inclusion and connect the community with valuable resources.

Your support will propel us to the next level, helping us expand our reach and continue shaping Dallas as a leader in innovation and digital equity. Together, we can create a city where every individual, neighborhood, and community has the opportunity to thrive in the digital world.
