WOMEN: LEADING THE FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY

The newly formed Maryland Women in Technology (MDWIT), and the Technology Council of Maryland are hosting a one day forum on Tuesday, March 25, 2008, to highlight the opportunities for women in Maryland in information technology, engineering, manufacturing, and related areas. The event will target three groups of women:

  • Women in Entrepreneurship
  • Women in the Technology Workforce
  • The Next Generation of Women in Technology

We believe the outcomes will have a significant impact on the development of new technology start-up companies in Maryland, help to address the anticipated labor shortages of skilled technology personnel, and on the global level expand conversations in support of increased competitiveness of today’s technology related businesses.

Businesses will have the opportunity to recruit students studying technology and engineering fields and also have the opportunity to network with professionals and entrepreneurs currently in the field. They will be able to share their current programs for encouraging and retaining women in their workforce as well as find out what students and professionals are looking for in a company. As a sponsor, companies show their desire to build a lasting diverse and highly-qualified workforce now and in the years to come.
