SUMMARY:Tech Intersections
DESCRIPTION:Kickoff the year 2020 with Tech Intersections: Celebrating Womxn of Color in Technology\, taking place at Mills College in Oakland\, California\, for its third year on Saturday\, January 25\, 2020 \nOur conference features ALL womxn of color in tech speakers for an all womxn of color audience.\nA sampling of our ~40 speakers includes: \nTiffani Ashley Bell\, Executive Director\, The Human Utility\nIrma Olguin\, Jr.\, CEO and Co-founder\, Bitwise Industries\nSusana Benavidez\, Student\, Stanford University\nAubrey Blanche\, Global Head of Diversity & Belonging\, Atlassian\nIdalin Bobé\, Founder of TechActivist.Org\nJoy Dixon\, Senior Manager\, Engineering\, at Salesforce\nNancy Douyon\, Design Ethicist & Product Philosopher\, Douyon Signature\nMarlen Andrea Salazar\, Web Developer / Co-owner\, Design Action Collective\nChristianna Taylor\, CTO\, Gantri\nRae Wright\, Donor Support Manager\, ActBlue \nView all speakers and sessions. \nWhy Is This Space Important? \nWe created Tech Intersections to address the needs of womxn of color\, such as African-Americans and Latinx\, who rarely see others like themselves in the workplace\, especially in higher-ranking positions. Existing tech conferences — even ones specifically designed for women — often have few underrepresented womxn in attendance and as speakers\, particularly on technical topics. Additionally\, tech conferences are generally unaffordable\, creating a financial barrier to those interested in breaking into the industry. Tech Intersections addresses these concerns by having inexpensive tickets\, providing free childcare\, being located where womxn of color are\, and limiting attendance to our target audience. We also hold a concurrent Ally Skills workshop for supporters outside our target demographic who want to learn how to support womxn of color. \nSneak Peek of What To Expect: \nOur workshops will include topics like: \nUse your story to get your next opportunity\nGet Your App in the App Store/Google Chrome Sooner with Ionic\nRe-Engineering your Career into Technical Product Management\nHacking Entrepreneurship: Trademarking and Business Protection for Creatives\nFree childcare will be provided. \nWe Hope You Can Join Us! \n————————————————————————– \nTech Intersections is primarily focused on womxn of color most underrepresented in tech. While we value our allies and recognize that all womxn in tech and mxn of color also face discrimination\, this is a unique opportunity for those most underrepresented womxn to have their own space. We hope our allies will join us at a concurrent allies workshop.
