Lightning Talks for IWD - Women Who Have Inspired Us

Fancy practicing your speaking skills?

To celebrate International Women's Day 2020, we are hosting another one of our Lightning Talks nights!

This month's theme is 'Women Who Have Inspired Us' and we are looking for people to present a 5 - 10 minute talk. Talks can be about any women in your life - relatives, friends, celebrities, or even fictional literary heroes! Email us on womenintechbirmingham@gmail.com with a short pitch and we'll try to fit you in.

The deadline for submissions is the 5th March for talks on the 9th March. We look forward to hearing from you!

Don't fancy presenting? That's no problem at all! Come along and join the lovely audience and listen to some amazing talks with a complimentary bar and nibbles.

Presentations start at 7pm, but feel free to come along from 6.30pm.
