    TechTruth.org is the brainchild of SiliconANGLE Media Inc and The GroundTruth Project founders. Cofounded by John Furrier, Dave Vellante, and Charlie Sennott as the technology section of TheGroundTruthProject.org. TechTruth is non-profit media organization dedicated to training the next generation of journalists to produce innovative media that enlightens and informs. TechTruth is committed to narrative storytelling across media platforms, including digital, radio/podcast, television and documentary film.

    This ambitious non-profit initiative will create "classes" of fellows through our funded fellowship program to train and support a new generation of journalists to cover the intersection of technology and social justice, called “TechTruth.” Fellows will go beyond the surface level of conference news to find stories that matter, exploring how technology intersects with issues of social justice.

    TechTruth's partner organization, GroundTruth, has supported more than 100 emerging journalists in telling the most important stories of their generation.

    Join our mission.
