tirar proveito; explorar/utilizar-se de/ aproveitar-se de


Explanation:
"tap into" is very unique to English. I would use one of the above (in the lack of a more precise one that I am not aware of), in the sense of "unleashing", "exploiting", "exploring", "making use" of what is potentially available.
Good luck
