Join us at our Q2 group meeting for an insightful panel discussion that tackles the critical issue of workplace discrimination faced by women and gender minorities in the tech industry.

Our 2023 workplace survey revealed a troubling statistic: 46% of women respondents reported experiencing discrimination in their tech workplaces. As a group, we'll discuss this issue head-on and equip ourselves with the knowledge and strategies to foster more inclusive and equitable work environments.

Our distinguished panel will feature 3 experts, providing insights into cultural, HR, and legal perspectives.

  • Racheal ‘Dami’ Odunewu, Career & Workplace Cultural Competency Consultant, Purpose Connect

  • Elizabeth Wente, Deputy General Counsel, SRC Holdings Corporation

  • A Human Resources Professional, to be announced

Attendees will gain valuable insights on:

  • Identifying and addressing various forms of discrimination

  • Legal implications and protections for women and gender minorities

  • HR best practices for creating inclusive policies and support systems

  • Strategies for promoting cultural competency and allyship

  • Fostering a culture of belonging and open dialogue

This event aims to empower women and allies in tech by providing a platform for learning, discussion, and collaboration. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and engage with the panelists during the Q&A session.
