Women Who Tech Telesummit - Women Breaking New Ground in Technology and Changing the World

I will be participating this week in a fantastic event - Women Who Tech Telesummit. This event brings together talented and renowned women breaking new ground in technology who use their tech savvy skills to transform the world and inspire change. I wanted to share the news with my readers and encourage you share this information with others. I'll be on the Innovation and Tech Career Reinvention panel, but there are many other panels that would be of great interest to women in technology and active in social media.

Given the amount of work I do with technology professionals and professionals who are working to make the world a better place in the areas such as renewable energy, corporate social responsibility, health, gender-based violence, consumerism and the media, I can't wait to attend some of these amazing panels! For only 10 USD you can learn from some of the women on the cutting edge of technology and social change from around the world - all from the comfort of your own home!
