In about three months, Emerging Leaders (ELs) representing 19 countries across Africa, Central Asia and the Middle East will arrive in San Francisco to participate in the 2016 TechWomen program. We are looking forward to welcoming this outstanding cohort of 90 emerging women leaders in STEM – the top 4% of more than 2,318 applicants. Stay tuned to our Instagram and Twitter as we introduce the ELs beginning this week! Follow the hashtag #ELofTheDay.

TechWomen Alumnae Council Elections
We are lucky to have a community of women (and a growing number of men) supporting each other – from launching initiatives to leading webinars. The TechWomen Alumnae Organization strives to help strengthen the TechWomen community and support ongoing connections between/with mentors and fellows. Mentors and fellows, please take a moment to cast your vote for the 2016-2017 TechWomen Alumnae Council. Voting will close on Wednesday, June 22, 2016.
