Tech Women Connect

On the 23rd of November we are organizing the Tech Women Connect event at the Ordina office in Utrecht(Nieuwegein), it’s an inspiring gathering that celebrates and empowers women in the tech industry.

In the last four decades, there has been increasingly more attention on the participation of women in male-dominated sectors, such as IT — another milestone to celebrate. However, women in male-dominated careers still face challenges today.
Modern day workforces are moving in the right direction, yet many women are not experiencing the benefits. So how can individual women continue and accelerate to thrive in male-dominated industries?
Perhaps the best approach is to ask individual women who have done it…

Here’s what you can look forward to:

Valuable Insights: Gain priceless insights from accomplished women in tech. Learn from their experiences, achievements, and challenges, and discover how you can succeed and thrive in the tech industry.
Networking Opportunities: Connect with remarkable tech women, industry leaders, and like-minded professionals. Forge new connections, exchange ideas.
Exciting Games and Activities!
