Women Techmakers

Telling Our Story: Changing the Game and Claiming Our Space

A summit for Women of Color, part of the The Women Techmakers Global Event Series Celebrating International Women's Day

Google's Women Techmakers program provides visibility, community, and resources for women in technology. Through our global International Women's Day summit series, we recognize how women around the world have influenced the tech industry and beyond.

As part of this year's series, Google is proud to celebrate the contributions of women of color in tech, and provide a space for this community to connect and collaborate. This summit aims to raise the visibility of women of color in technology and their contributions, and enhance connections between Google and women of color in tech. We hope that through this event, you will have opportunities to learn, share, enhance your personal and professional networks, and walk away inspired and motivated.

Attendance is by application only. To join us, please apply here. Applications close on Friday, March 24th, and all applicants will be notified of their status on or before March 28th.
