History in the Making with Regina Gwynn, Co-founder of Black Women Talk Tech
By Skillcrush
When most people hear the word “tech,” they think it stops at electronic devices. But that couldn't be further from the truth — tech has always been more about people than machines.
So when it comes to the involvement of people in the industry, why is it an uphill battle for inclusion in the field?
Frankly, when you look at the data, it can make you want to scream into a pillow (and without a pillow at times because the world needs to hear it!) for anyone who falls outside of the criteria of “tech bro.”
But the data NEVER tells you the whole story.
With tech skills & jobs being more accessible than ever, there are so many women, gender non-conforming, and people of color who have figured out the steps needed to thrive within the industry.
And the good news is they’re not keeping those steps a secret. :)
This is why I’d like to invite you to our upcoming webinar:
History In The Making with Regina Gwynn, Co-Founder of Black Women Talk Tech
Thursday, February 23rd at 3pm ET / 12pm PT
Regina Gwynn is the co-founder of Black Women Talk Tech, the largest collective of Black women tech founders who have built an entire tech ecosystem designed to support Black women in building billion dollar businesses.
And on Thursday, Regina plans to open the doors to her career journey, from fashion-retail to co-founding Black Women Talk Tech, to discuss the lessons learned along the way.
Every day we’re seeing women launch new businesses, scale them, and achieve their career dreams — we want to add fuel to that fire by giving you an EXCLUSIVE 1-hour sit-down with Regina whose been listed on Essence Magazine’s Top Ten Women in Tech and Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women in Tech lists.
We’ll cover:
- How to leverage your unique background in a tech career transition?
- How did Regina go from a fashion-retail corporate job to launching a tech startup to building Black Women Talk Tech?
- Regina’s top success tips for people from diverse backgrounds working in tech?
- How to face the gender and diversity problems in tech head-on—and keep on going
If you’re interested in breaking into tech or currently navigating a male-dominated tech company, I’m confident you WILL find your way. And you don’t have to do it alone!
