About this Event:

Working in the constantly evolving tech industry is both exciting & challenging. But research states that only 3% of females say a career in technology is their first choice and that only 5% of leadership positions in the technology sector are held by women.

The truth is... the tech space is not like it was 10-20 years ago. A lot of work has been done to change the story & everyone is welcome. Tech is now a fun, friendly, creative & dynamic industry.

If you enjoy learning and love being one step ahead - this event is for you. Our events are 100% inclusive - everyone needs to speak up & collaborate to create a new normal.

Workshop Goals

By the end of this panel event you will have:

  • A better understanding of what it's like to be a woman in tech
  • Career coaching & mindset tips to takeaway
  • Inspiration to raise your career aspirations
  • Your chance to meet industry experts, ask questions and share your thoughts
