We are
Carolina Women+ in Tech
Our members encompass any person who identifies as female or non-binary that embraces the role that technology plays in their career, business, and life.
Engage
We will be offering many opportunities to network with other women+ in tech. We encourage one on one connecting as well as at our meetup events.
Educate
Our goal as a non profit is to fundraise to provide opportunities for education. Continuing education, bootcamps, scholarships, and grants.
Empower
The ultimate goal of this group is to empower each and every woman+ that values the role that technology plays in her life.
What We Do
We are Women+ in Tech
Our mission is to empower, engage, and educate women+ in tech. We have a unique opportunity to unite and support each other. We encourage any person that celebrates technology to join our effort.
Two Chapters – One Mission
Why Should You Join Us?
We are better together. We need each other. Bottomline – statistics show that we need more women+ in tech. The roles are lopsided, and our goal is to help provide a more even environment. We know that women+ led businesses perform better. We also know that we need more women+ in tech. Join us because we are better together.
Education Statistics
Women account for only 20% of the bachelor’s degrees conferred in engineering, computer science, and physics.
Workforce Statistics
Regardless of specific area of technology, only about 25% of these positions are held by women. (National Center for Educational Statistics)
Leadership Statistics
And, while women represent almost half of the US workforce, just 5% are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies and that number expands only slightly when looking at Fortune 1000 companies. (Pew Research)
