ICT Clusters in the GTA & Abroad

Wired Woman

Posted by gsisovit on March 30, 2008

Hey All,

I have recently come across the website of an organization called Wired Woman. The organization is all about fostering a community that encourages women to explore opportunities and build successful careers that allow them to actively participate in the growing technology sector. Wired Woman achieve their mission by establishing a strong network of national volunteers who design, develop, and deliver monthly programs to members and the community at-large. These programs are supported by a national volunteer board and the corporate sponsors and partners.

Their vision is to become known as the pre-eminent, non-profit Canadian society and advocate group for women seeking education, networking and mentoring opportunities in the broadly defined technology sector. With chapters in Toronto and Vancouver, they are already capitalizing on the existing ICT clusters there, and are focusing on collaborating with them. Including more women in the ICT sector is an excellent way to plant new ideas and viewpoints into the system, leading to increased creativity and innovation.   check them out at www.wiredwoman.com

Till Next Time….
