Gone are the days when women were just restricted to gender-specific roles. Despite being educated and skilled they are expected to do jobs that suited their gender, their families or more importantly the society at large. Women have time and again proved they can excel at any job which society thinks is not made for them. In the 21st century, almost every organization has accepted this fact and is becoming a flag-bearer of gender diversity. Technology sector is one such field where women were disregarded and given lesser opportunities to leave a mark.
The leadership roles, in tech organisations specifically, were considered unattainable for women. The tables now seemed to have turned in the last decade with more women taking top-notch positions in technology companies. With this becoming a common scenario many women-specific conferences are also being organised world over. WomenTech Global Conference (WTGC) is one such conference where empowered women gather to discuss innovative ideas, learn new skills, make valuable connections and access motivational leaders. It is a mission-driven program by WomenTech Network and the Coding Girls Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to enabling women empowerment in tech through leadership development, professional growth, mentorship and networking events.
