There’s no shortage of visionaries with powerful ideas. What’s missing is the infrastructure to protect those ideas, monetize them, and pass them on.
I’m an AI strategist and business architect. I work with institutions, city leaders, founders, and public-serving organizations to help them build tech frameworks that preserve their knowledge and unlock capital.



Tamar Huggins is an award-winning AI strategist and tech founder dedicated to building future-forward systems that protect culture, power equity, and prepare the next generation tech innovators.

Over the past 15 years, Tamar has designed culturally fluent, equity-centered technologies that build legacy. She’s the visionary behind Spark Plug AI—the first generative AI chatbot designed to center the Black experience—and the creator of Legacy Intelligence™, a framework that transforms institutional memory into AI-powered systems built for ownership and impact.

Tamar has raised $4M to build AI for the culture, helped secure over $20M in funding for minority-led ventures, and impacted more than 240,000 underrepresented students through her edtech platforms and innovation programs.

Her work is trusted by TD Bank, Royal Bank of Canada, Salesforce, and the Government of Canada—and recognized by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. As a sought-after speaker, she’s been featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, Essence, AfroTech and BET for her leadership at the intersection of tech, equity, and legacy.

At the core of Tamar’s mission is one truth: the future belongs to those who build it. And she’s here to make sure we build it on our terms.

 Prime Minister of Canada

“Tamar Huggins is redefining what leadership in technology looks like. Through her organization Tech Spark, she’s empowered thousands of young people—particularly children of colour—to see themselves as innovators, creators, and leaders in the digital economy. Her work breaks down barriers and builds the future of tech in Canada to be more equitable, inclusive, and reflective of our values.”

“Tamar Huggins brought unmatched clarity and power to our accelerator. Her strategic coaching helped 14 women-led, AI-driven companies refine their business narratives, attract funding, and present confidently on global stages. Four founders raised over $ 50,000 under her mentorship, and 11 showcased in NYC on Demo Day. Her guidance didn’t just elevate their pitches—it positioned them for long-term success in the AI ecosystem.”
