Please join us for a special Design Night as we partner with Uber (http://uber.com) and World Wide Women (http://worldwidewomenfestival.com/about/) to celebrate the career paths of women.

The night will kickoff with a screening of the film 50/50 (http://www.refinery29.com/tiffany-shlain-50-50-film) which documents the true history of powerful women around the world. Then we’ll be inspired by the paths of 5 women; a Product Design Director, a CEO, a Copy Creative Director, a Program Manager, a Founder and Developer. Uniquely in the audience will be girls from local San Francisco Schools learning about the possibilities they can aspire to choose.

We welcome your teen-age daughters to attend and learn how women impact and influence the tech world. Perhaps you’ve been thinking about a career change, here is your chance to understand the path needed.
