Women’s Tech Hub ∼ Bristol exists to encourage none-included groups, primarily gender-related who are in, or interested in tech to help support and develop their careers within the industry.
We support via our networking events as well as signposting to other tech-related groups and industry. We aim to help local tech companies create a more diverse and inclusive workplace culture that benefits everyone.
Workshop Wednesday
Our Workshop Wednesdays are bi-weekly term-time meetups, which are free and welcome to all our members. We supply drinks and snacks and occasionally pizzas if we have any sponsoring companies. The workshops are pretty flexible and we also offer careers advice and networking to members wanting to just pop in.
GirlGeek Dinners
Girl Geek Dinners is an informal organisation that promotes women in the information technology industry, with 64 established chapters in 23 countries The organization was founded in London, by Sarah Lamb (née Blow), who realized how under-represented women are at information technology events after attending a Geek Dinner in 2005.
Chapters organise local events featuring both female and male speakers with mostly female attendees. As the name suggests, it is like a Geek Dinner but with one significant rule: men can only attend as invited guests of women, ensuring that women will never be outnumbered by men at events.
Women's Tech Founders
Women’s Tech Founders was set up as we recognised that not all of our members were simply looking to get into tech for the sake of it, but really to utilise it to implement great Business ideas. We know that there is some support out there and for now we shall put in the information of any groups in the area supporting tech women in business as we find them. We are aiming this at the pre-incubator members as that’s where we believe there is an issue with people wanting basic information and support on their journey.
We will be back once we’ve decided the format to run … and If anyone fancies being involved then please let us know as we are always open to a conversation with nice people.
