Agenda

7pm-8pm: Panel & raffle prizes (yes we offer geektastic raffle prizes!)
8pm-9pm: More networking!


The conversation around women in tech these days seems to focus on (the lack of) female engineers. While an important conversation, ­there are a myriad of other job positions in tech ­ currently held by women ­that go beyond coding and developing. This panel brings together women who have made their mark in the tech industry in a variety of different roles. Each of these roles is important and significant, yet these women are not developers. The speakers will share their unique perspectives on their job functions, what it's like in their day to day roles, as well as how they got there and how they stay up to date in their fields.
