Design Challenge - Increasing Inclusion In Tech

This month Tigerspike and Women in Tech Club are partnering to bring a workshop which will give you the opportunity to get out of your daily routine and explore opportunities to make a difference with technology by working on a design challenge under the guidance of the UX experts from Tigerspike.

Technology has an incredible opportunity to transform lives for the better, however, the lack of diversity and inclusion seriously limits our ability to truly fulfill that potential. 

So during this workshop we will explore: 

"How we can use technology to empower and champion diversity and inclusion within the tech industry?"

We will provide additional guidance on the day, but for now, we’d love for you to think as creatively as possible and bring your ideas to the session.

Tools

You don't have to bring anything, just your passion, energy, and an open mind. We will facilitate the session and provide the necessary tools.
