Women in MACH
The first Women in MACH Flagship Event in Madrid last year was an overwhelming success.
The momentum the Women in MACH movement and community has had in just one year, clearly shows how important this initiative is for our space to extend our pioneering spirit from tech to people.
We have written a manifesto - and the vast majority of our members have signed it and committed to being an ally. Now it’s time to go beyond the manifesto - and start making MACH tech a truly diverse and inclusive space for all of us.
Event Purpose
- Inspire and support Women in MACH in developing their own skills, competencies and career paths
- To take the next step towards equal opportunities for Women in MACH
- To define challenges on the path to turning our manifesto into every Women in MACH’s reality
- To define and propose solutions to turn the manifesto into actionable programs that support our members in adopting the manifesto in day-to-day business
- All of that is encapsulated in Women in MACH 2023 - Beyond Boundaries.
The Program will be added soon on this page - stay tuned
Date: September 21, 2023, 9:00 am - 11 pm
Location: Club Alma Sensai. del Príncipe de Vergara, 9, 28001 Madrid, Spain
