Our Team

Get to know the team behind the BCTIA and Centre4Growth:

 

Bill Tam, President & CEO

Bill first joined the association in 2010 as an inaugural CEO-in-Residence with Centre4Growth. In July of 2011, Bill took the helm of the BCTIA and hasn’t slowed down since then. He is a tireless advocate for our industry, leads our strategic direction and policy initiatives, while at the same time staying in-tune and connected to our membership and community.

Cindy 

Cindy Pearson, Chief Operating Officer

With a history in technology associations and non-profits, Cindy brought every bit of that knowledge, excitement and dedication to the BCTIA in 2004. While her official title may be COO, we like to think of her as the glue that holds everything together. From managing day to day operations to stakeholder collaboration and policy development, Cindy wears many hats, and she wears them all well.

Wendy Turnbull, Marketing & Communications

If it's emailed, printed, tweeted or blogged by the BCTIA, odds are Wendy had something to do with it.  Responsible for all things communications and branding-related, if Wendy's not watching sports or preparing for the zombie apolcalypse, she's working on spreading BCTIA and Centre4Growth messaging to the world.
