About us
Formerly known as London Tech Ladies, Rise is a vibrant community originally created for women working in the technology space who are passionate about building meaningful connections and empowering themselves and one another.
After reaching a milestone of 5,000 members, we rebranded as Rise to reflect our growing mission: to support and inspire women in tech, whether actively working in the field or simply interested in it, to advance their careers and promote greater gender diversity in leadership roles.
Our focus is on soft skill development, offering regular events and workshops that explore key themes such as personal growth, public speaking, work/life balance, gaining authority, and more.
In 2025, we proudly launched our Mentorship & Leadership Programme, designed to foster the personal and professional development of women leaders and cultivate advocates for change. The ultimate goal is to increase the representation of women in policy-making and decision-making roles across industries.

Please complete the mentor application form
As a mentor, you'll have the opportunity to share your experience, support aspiring women in tech, and help shape the next generation of leaders.Anyone if Rise is running a six-month mentoring programme designed to empower women leaders by pairing experienced senior-executive women with promising junior- or mid-career women in a one-to-one mentoring relationship. The aim is to develop leadership skills (such as strategic thinking, decision-making and people skills), expand professional networks, boost confidence and improve retention of women into higher roles.
https://rise-londontechladies.com/mentorship-program/Your role as mentor:
As a mentor, you would be expected to:
· Bring your senior leadership experience (minimum 15 years of full-time work, and at least 5 years in a managerial position) and your commitment to support the next generation of women leaders.
· Engage in at least six private one-to-one mentoring sessions (approximately one hour each, either in person or virtually) over the six-month period, with the mentee you are matched with.
· Be open to learning and two-way feedback—mentoring isn’t only about giving but also deepening one’s own leadership awareness and inclusive-leadership mindset.5 attendees
