What we’re about
Are you a woman who is passionate about cloud computing and AWS? Do you wish to connect with like-minded individuals, share knowledge, and foster a supportive network? Look no further! We are thrilled to announce the launch of the AWS Women's User Group Berlin, a vibrant community designed to provide a safe and inclusive space for women in cloud.
At AWS Women's User Group Berlin, we firmly believe in the power of diversity and inclusion to drive innovation and excellence. Our primary goal is to create an environment where women in the cloud industry can come together, learn from one another, and grow both professionally and personally. We aim to provide a welcoming and supportive atmosphere where everyone feels valued, respected, and free to express themselves. We are dedicated to supporting and empowering women at all levels of their cloud careers, from cloud beginners to seasoned professionals.
Here's what you can expect as a member of our user group:
- Knowledge Sharing: Gain valuable insights from fellow AWS users regarding their best practices and experiences. Amplify your knowledge in AWS and stay up to date with the latest trends in AWS.
- Networking Opportunities: Connect with other women working in the cloud industry, expand your professional network, and build meaningful relationships.
- Career Development: Enhance your skills in AWS, broaden your knowledge, and advance your career through targeted resources and learning opportunities.
- Safe and Inclusive Environment: We prioritise creating a safe space where everyone can freely express their ideas, concerns, and experiences. We have a zero-tolerance policy for any form of discrimination, harassment, or disrespectful behaviour. Our women's user group embraces intersectionality, valuing and respecting the diverse backgrounds, identities, and experiences of its members, creating an inclusive space within the AWS community.**
- Collaboration and Support: We encourage collaboration among our members and promote an environment of support and encouragement. Share your AWS projects, seek feedback, and find opportunities for collaboration within the user group.
Join the AWS Women's User Group Berlin and be a part of a community that celebrates diversity, champions inclusion, and empowers women in the cloud industry. Together, we will create an environment where everyone thrives and achieves their full potential.
Stay tuned for upcoming events, workshops, and opportunities to get involved. Join our LinkedIn page.
**Given the significant lack of female representation in the field of cloud computing, we fully comprehend the value of fostering inclusive and safe spaces. Therefore, we extend a warm invitation to FLINTA individuals who are interested in being part of our User Group.
! Please note that this user group is specifically for women and FLINTA only. If you do not identify as one of these please check out the AWS User Group Berlin !
At the AWS Women's User Group in Berlin, we have a strong and unequivocal code of conduct in place to create a safe and empowering environment for all.
