We Want More Women in Tech!

Technology companies need, more than ever, women's skills and knowledge. Broad thinking gives birth to the best products and solutions. Women in Tech activities aim to discuss how women could have a larger role in creating success stories in business and technology.

Women in Tech is an organisation network for promoting technology careers for women. Its member companies understand the virtue of diversity and encourage open discussion and sharing of knowledge among women and men working in the technology industry. The activities of the network are free and open to all.

Women in Tech activities include monthly Breakfast Dates, that have become super popular both in Helsinki and other cities. Main event of the network is the bi-annual Women in Tech Forum that has been organised in Finland 2013, 2015 and 2017.

The next Women in Tech Week is taking place 7-11 October 2019. The whole week is dedicated to Women in Tech events and it culminates in Women in Tech Forum - an international one-day event held on the 11 October 2019 in Finlandia Hall, Helsinki. This time, Women in Tech Forum is organised under the theme “Impact Our Future”.

Upcoming Events

Women in Tech Forum and Week are organized bi-annually. Breakfast Dates are monthly and they are hosted by members of Women in Tech network.
