Tech Intersections: Womxn of Color in Tech Conference
January 26, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Tech Intersections provides a space for the womxn of color most underrepresented in tech to come together and learn from each other’s successes, challenges, and experiences. While we value our allies and recognize that all women in tech and men of color also face discrimination, this is a unique opportunity for us to have our own space. We hope our allies will join us at a concurrent allies workshop.
Specifically, this conference is exclusively for people who:
-
identify as women/womxn of color,
are engineers, entrepreneurs, activists, teachers, or leaders in tech (or aspiring to be), and
belong to an ethnic group underrepresented in tech, including, but not limited to:
African-American
American Indian/Native American
Latinx
Middle Eastern
Pacific Islander
Southeast Asian
Speakers present talks, panels, and workshops on:
-
career skills
self-care
sharing the benefits
tech ecosystem building
tech entrepreneurship and VC
technical skills
Tickets are priced to keep cost from being a barrier to attendance, and speakers attend for free. We aim for a harassment-free environment and will hold attendees and staff to a code of conduct.
Attendance is limited to 250 people. Free childcare will be provided.
