Empowering Women in Tech: An Inspiring Panel Discussion
Join us for an empowering event where four distinguished women share their journeys to success in the tech industry, a field traditionally dominated by men. Their stories are not about luck but about hard work, perseverance, and the power of self-promotion. As Liz Rogers puts it, "I learned very early on that if I did not promote myself - no one else was going to."
