Women in Tech York is a community! We’re made up of individuals studying, working in, or interested in technology. We run events where attendees can share their knowledge and interests, as well as encourage and empower one another whilst building their networks.
Events run on the second Thursday of the month.
As always, there will be a free buffet (vegan options available) thanks to our amazing sponsors Isotoma and Genio. Please let us know about allergies in advance.
We’re bringing you rapid-fire talks on a variety of topics. We’re joined by:
