TECH(K)NOW DAY on Ada Lovelace Day 2018
9 October 2018 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Free
WELCOME to the 4th TECH(K)NOW Day LONDON! JOIN WOMEN in TECH and WOMEN in STARTUPS on TUESDAY, OCTOBER 09, from 9am to 5pm for a special event on Ada Lovelace Day!
TECH(K)NOW DAY has been organised to provide a place and venue for anyone who identifies as a woman to go and learn new tech skills (see details below). If you are a woman in tech or a woman wanting to get into tech, then this is for you. Back in March this year, we held another TECH(K)NOW Day around International Women’s Day with the theme –#PressForProgress. We will continue on with that theme this October 09!
Also, if you are a woman founder or woman co-founder of a startup, you can apply for a free exhibition space here >> http://www.bit.ly/techknowdayspace. If you are at a stage where you are looking to form a startup – then attend and get access to startup advice from some of the companies and organisations that will be present.
Tea/Coffee/Pastries/Biscuits will be served for Breakfast (8-9am). Lunch will also be available as well as Tea/Coffee/Biscuits for the afternoon tea break.
HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS
Throughout the day, there will be a whole range of hands-on workshops available for both –
- complete beginners (for you to explore what’s out there that you could be learning and find out for yourself if coding is for you)
- experienced developers (for you to explore other technologies/languages you might currently not be familiar with, for example – machine learning, AI, graph databases, AngularJS, messaging bots and a whole range of other topics).
TALKS
There will also be separate tracks for talks, so if you are not in one of the workshops above, you can listen to interesting talks and speakers about
- Tech topics (current and emerging)
- Personal Development
- Career Development
- Diversity / Inclusivity / Unconscious Bias
CAREER HUB / CAREER FAIR
There will be a career hub where experts will be on had to help you – if you want to have one-to-one conversations about the above career development-related topics.
STARTUP SPACE and STARTUP ADVICE SPACE
We will also be featuring a number of women-led startups (meaning the founder or one of the co-founders is a woman).
Sign up for a ticket so we can send you more information along with the schedule of the hands-on workshops, talks and other activities happening on Tuesday, October 09!
