ShesGeeky.org Plans UnConference for Women in Technology


An idea that started between women working in technology has grown into She's Geeky. The group plans an "unconference" that utilizes open space technology to 'self-organize'. An unconference has an agenda created by the people who attend.


According to the group these type of "open space" events are bursting with high energy among attendees.


Event Goals:
  • Our goal is to create an open space forum for women in tech to come together to:

  • Exchange skills and learning from women from diverse fields of technology.

  • Discuss topics about women and technology.

  • Connect the diverse range of women in technology, computing, entrepreneurship, funding, hardware, open source, nonprofit and any other technical geeky field.
Where:
  • Computer History Museum, Mountain View, CA.

When:

  • October 22-23
  • Start Time: Noon on Monday
  • Ending Time: Close 6pm on Tuesday.
