The tech industry faces significant challenges – skills shortages in certain areas, a growing focus on making money as opposed to doing something for the greater good and a general lack of diversity amongst those who make up the IT workforce.As people working in the industry, we have an opportunity to transform the future of IT by giving something back, providing opportunities for others and inspiring the next generation. This session explores ideas and initiatives that will help us to drive positive change, growing a more inclusive and highly skilled tech community for the future.

Bio: Amy has been working with technology teams and organisations for almost a decade (https://twitter.com/amy_lynch), providing advice and support on their recruitment and marketing strategies. Currently working for a global software consultancy and a coorganiser of Ladies Who Code Manchester, she is passionate about diversity and inclusivity as well as promoting the tech community in the North.

Doors open at 6.30pm with the talk starting at 7pm.
