This special event is in honour of the upcoming Ada Lovelace Day, which takes place this October 9th. Ada Lovelace was a brilliant 19th century British woman credited to have invented computer programs, before computers were even a thing! Ada Lovelace Day is internationally celebrated and is meant to highlight achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), as well as to inspire girls to pursue STEM careers.
