Our Story
Launched in 2014, Diversity IT Network is the brainchild of Reinier Moquete, CEO of Advoqt Technology Group, a Boston based IT systems integrator focused on Cloud Computing & Cybersecurity including Consulting, Managed Services, and Staffing. Reinier moved to Boston in 1999 with no family, no education, and no money. He devoted six years of full-time schooling, all while maintaining a 60+ hour workweek. Making it out of a tough situation and turning his life around made him want to help others to do the same. Because of this, Reinier co-founded Latino STEM Alliance, a non-profit organization designed to inspire underserved youth to pursue careers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). That same drive to help others inspired him to create the Diversity IT Network.
“Like an IT network, a person is only as strong as the network they’re connected to. If you’re an IT professional, I urge you to join us at Diversity IT Network. Together, we will make a difference in the IT industry, both today and for the generations that will follow.”
