Tech Women: On March 31st Use Your Power to Reshape the World


Defying the stereotype that the tech world belongs to pocket-protector toting guys hooked on sci-fi and video games; hundreds of women are gearing up for the “Women Who Tech” national telesummit.  These are no ordinary women either.  The participants are the cadre of women from coast to coast who leverage their technology savvy to inspire change and transform the world.

Among the sessions:  

•    Web 2.0: What’s Hot? What’s Not?
•    Cracking the Boys Club:  Women and Social Capital
•    Everything You Wanted To Know About Tech But Were Afraid To Ask (a man)
•    Breaking Through the Digital Ceiling

Panelists include a “who’s who” of women on the forefront of social change and technological progress, among them:  Arianna Huffington of HuffingtonPost.com; Joan Blades of Moveon.org and MomsRising.org and Lynne Johnson of Fast Company to name a few.   

“Women have been at the forefront of developing technology before the days of floppy discs, CRT monitors and corded mice,” said Allyson Kapin, the organizer of Women Who Tech. “The Women Who Tech telesummit is for those of us who see computers as instruments of social change, not just hardware and software. It's for women who are committed to applying technology in ways that engage people and advance our common values.”
