Tech-Ready Boards.
Mission-Ready Nonprofits.

We help boards lead on AI, cybersecurity, and digital risk–so every tech decision advances the mission.

What we do

We build the human infrastructure behind every tech decision—equipping boards to lead on AI, cybersecurity, and digital strategy with ethics and mission alignment.

Train Boards and CEOs to Lead on Tech

We build full-board fluency, training, and coaching so every member can engage with AI, digital strategy, and innovation rather than falling back on staff or the one “tech person” on the board.

Place and Activate Tech Leaders Where They Matter Most

We embed experienced technologists into nonprofit boards to fill strategic leadership gaps, not just seats, and create the communities they need to thrive.

Multiply Impact for Funders and Nonprofits

We turn tech investments into long-term capacity, amplifying every dollar with the leadership needed to make it work.

Why Board.Dev?

“Board members are essential to moving AI and tech forward. Their primary job in governance is to support the strategic direction. They aren’t setting it, but they are making sure it’s moving—and AI strategy is no different.”

Shannon Farley, Fast Forward

I’m a physician and know nothing about the IT side of things. … We need someone not to actually build the technology but to help us visualize how the infrastructure could help us move forward…. It’s a series of decisions with which we could use tech expertise as we grow, from minimum viable product all the way to architecting our next move.

Aral Surmeli, Founder, HERA Digital Health

“He’s helping us [understand] where we need to focus and not, where we might need to adjust.”

Alex Godin, cofounder of Lemontree Food Helpline
