Recap: TechWomen Community Event Through Tweets

October 15, 2014 By TechWomen Leave a Comment

Last night, hundreds of people “flocked” to Twitter Headquarters to attend the 2014 TechWomen Community Event on mentoring girls in science, technology, mathematics, and engineering (STEM) fields.

Located in the hub of technology and innovation in downtown San Francisco, the event was hosted by Twitter’s Women in Engineering (@womeng) group, which is deeply committed to supporting women and girls in technical fields. A special thank you to the Women in Engineering team who helped make this event a huge success!

@womeng @kellyshalk @megsraye @jrw – Thank you all you everything you do to support @TechWomen year after year. You are really the BEST

— Heather Ramsey (@hramseySF) October 15, 2014

Alongside Emerging Leaders, Professional and Cultural Mentors, supporters, and friends of the TechWomen program joined in for a night of food, drink, networking, and inspiring talks. Welcomed by Twitter VP of Infrastructure Operations Engineering Mazen Rawashdeh, community members then heard from VP of Engineering Nandini Ramani, who shared her insights on being a woman leader in STEM. Next, Janet Van Huysse, VP of Diversity and Inclusion, moderated a panel of TechWomen Emerging Leaders, featuring Fatma Zohra Djoudjou, Mona Riad Eilouti, Nozibusiso Gumede, and Janet Bih Shufor from the 2013 program. The panelists discussed how the mentorship and exchange components of the TechWomen will help them give back to their communities and shape their initiatives to promote and mentor girls to pursue STEM fields in their home countries.

As TechWomen Director Heather Ramsey aptly noted, “TechWomen has created a powerful network with a magical momentum.” The TechWomen community was abuzz throughout the event, with hundreds of quotes, moments, and photos being tweet all night — so much so that TechWomen became a Twitter trending topic in San Francisco!

Each year, we’re amazed by the talents, aspirations, and accomplishments of the cohort of TechWomen Emerging Leaders, and we’re happy many of you could meet these incredible women at the Community Event last night. Check out some of the best photos and tweets from the event below, and be sure to add #TW2014 to your tweets as the 2014 program continues!
