What we’re about
Driven by women, Wāhine Fuelled Tech provides a safe and supportive environment that empowers you to develop your technology skills, your career and your network.
All are welcome, you don't need to identify as female or be currently working in tech to participate. We expect all our members and attendees (including those attending events as members' guests) to be respectful of, and behave appropriately towards, all other participants.
We also have this Wāhine Fuelled Tech calendar, which gives an overview of all sorts of tech- and diversity-related events happening in Wellington. If you have anything to add to the calendar, please message the group organisers.
We are always looking for volunteers, speakers and topics - if you would like to present, host, sponsor or help organise any of our events or activities, please contact the organisers - we'd love to hear from you!

We’ll also host a series of pre-jam webinars to help participants sharpen their skills, meet other jammers and get inspired.
