Special Edition - Family in Tech Networking Breakfast

Join us for a special Family edition event from our Women in Tech Networking Breakfast series!

Balancing a fast-paced tech career with the demands of family life can be both deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. This event offers an open forum to explore shared experiences and strategies.

We'll be diving into essential topics, including:

• Supporting return to work after maternity/paternity leave – How we can ease the transition and reduce the stress of reentry.
• Navigating new priorities with a family – Redefining success and productivity in a way that aligns with evolving personal values.
• Understanding and addressing parental burnout
• Staying connected in a fast-moving industry – Exploring the fear of falling behind and ways to maintain professional relevance without sacrificing family time.
• Creating a more supportive culture – Practical ways we can all raise awareness, show empathy, and support colleagues with parenting responsibilities.

Whether you're a parent, future parent, manager, ally, or simply curious about creating a more inclusive workplace, this event is for you!
