Title
HighTech Women - Meeting and Mentoring
Description
If ever there was a testament to the power of the internet and to the ability of people to share a good idea when they find it, HighTech Women is it. An email was sent out to some friends and colleagues on a Sunday night in early March 2000, and by the following Wednesday the HighTech Women site had hundreds of hits and almost 100 people registered for our first event and it has grown by word of mouth and mail ever since! Celebrating our first anniversary, we have more than 1700 members from around the world and 4 times that in casual unregistered visitors who read the articles and keep up with our activities.
HighTech Women is geared towards bringing together women in a congenial community to meet people involved in the technology industry. It is also an environment where experienced women reach out to those just coming up in high-tech and related fields and give them a helping hand. The object of HighTech Women is to mentor, encourage, teach, and share, facilitating the advancement of women in technology and technology related fields. In all, it is an opportunity for women to help one another foster their ambitions and support their dreams.
It is important to note that this is not just a group for women working in pure technology, but also for women in any tech-related sector or doing tech-related work, including journalism, law, venture capital, consulting, accounting, recruitment, etc., and for women in all parts of technology organisations, including finance, marketing, sales, human resources - at any point in their career, from the most junior to the most senior.
