TechLeaders: Realizing Your Vision for Women of Color

TechLeaders: Realizing Your Vision for Women of Color is an exciting new workshop offering by the Anita Borg Institute. National Science Foundation Research shows that women of color (Asian/Asian-American, Black/African-American, Hispanic/Latina and American Indian) earn less than 9.4% computer science and 7.1% engineering bachelors degrees and are all but absent from the most senior technology positions in industry and academia. ABI is committed to addressing the need for networking, mentoring, and leadership development opportunities for women of color which studies have shown help them to achieve the highest levels of success in their technical fields.

This two-day workshop specifically designed for entry to mid-level technical women of color in academia and industry provides skills to help increase participants’ scope and influence while defining and building their technical vision, as well as the opportunity to network and deepen their relationships with other women of color in the technical community. If you identify as a technical woman of color, join us to learn how break down barriers to advancement and take the next step in your career!
