“We launched Empower Tech to develop what we started at DevTalks Romania on the Women in Tech scene. The desire is to create a space where our tech audience, regardless of gender, can build authentic connections and implement healthy practices in their organizations. Our long-term vision is to transform Empower Tech into a community where positive change around diversity and gender equality is not only possible, but also visible. In the technology conferences we organize we have a significant percentage of 36% women and we consider it an impetus to explore as many representative sectors as possible that will have an impact in technology and business in the next 5 years. With this first edition, we want to give participants not only knowledge, but also the courage and tools to innovate and shine on their professional path.” – Roxana Sluser, Senior Pj.
