From October 23 to 24, Intellias will host the second annual She Is Tech Conference with the support of UN Women. This global event is dedicated to women in the tech industry. In the first edition, the conference attracted over 2000 leading women tech professionals and featured more than 50 speakers from around the world. This October, She Is Tech will span two days to accommodate an even larger audience. 

The goal of She Is Tech is to explore and share innovative best practices and solutions for enhancing gender diversity within the tech industry and beyond. By fostering open discussions, female leaders and specialists in technology, recruitment, professional development, employee experience, and talent management will collaborate to develop effective strategies for creating a more inclusive and equitable environment.  
 

At Intellias, our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) drives us to continuously improve our workplace for women and address the gender gap in the tech industry. Since endorsing the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) in 2021, we have made significant strides in this direction. The inaugural conference marked our first major opportunity to connect with talented and ambitious women leaders. We are deeply inspired by its success and are committed to continuing our mission of harnessing and uniting the power of women in tech.

The second day will feature three thematic stages, each covering a diverse range of topics:  

  • Workplace Stage: Focuses on gender-sensitive recruitment, learning, mentoring, professional development for women, equal pay, equal parenthood, menopause, and more. 
  • Leadership Stage: Features discussions on leadership journeys, breaking the glass ceiling and sticky floor, insights from various leadership teams, stories of women founders, and experiences of women entrepreneurs. 
  • Tech Stage: Brings together inspiring women experts who have made significant strides in groundbreaking technologies to share their experiences, insights, and stories of innovation.

We are thrilled to support the She Is Tech Conference for the second time.
