The largest virtual tech conference and celebration for 100 000 women, minorities, and their allies in tech providing inspiration, enabling networking opportunities and collaboration on what matters most in times of uncertainty. LIMITED FREE ADMISSION.
Several months ago, the best thing in my life happened. My daughter was born. 🤱👶
We had more than 50 WomenTech events scheduled across the globe and our team grew to 7, it was challenging but we were somehow managing.
Then, the unimaginable happened. 🙀
A pandemic. We had to cancel everything. Hard times for everyone. Especially for women. While working from home often we are doing unpaid care work, and I came to realize first-hand what it means to be a working mother and how vulnerable women are in times of disruption. Many community members started to write to us, facing challenges from being laid off, lacking health insurance to facing gender-based violence. Social distancing has reinforced many of the already challenging situations and making external help more difficult.
Then it came to me 💡 "Build a virtual space, where we can unite 100 000 women in tech, To provide inspiration, hope, and support in times of crisis and layoffs to enter, grow, and excel in tech while working from home. And give them a voice to become part of a solution by leading with purpose, humanity, and impact”.
This space is now called “WomenTech Global Conference 2020”, the largest virtual celebration for women, minorities and their allies in tech enabling networking, job opportunities and collaboration on what matters most in times of uncertainty.
Join us on our mission and by supporting and sharing this experience with incredibly deserving persons from 181 countries. People who need inspiration and support the most, like people who lost their job, emergency personnel, students, teachers, and front-line essential workers. 💜
