All It Takes Is One Opportunity Strong&Proud
✨ Sometimes All It Takes Is One Opportunity
One conversation. One connection. One opportunity can change the course of someone’s career.
This event was born from a simple belief: there are incredibly capable, hardworking people who are still waiting for someone to believe in them.
If you've ever felt stuck, questioned yourself, struggled to break into tech, or wished you could ask a hiring manager what really matters you are not alone.
Join us for an evening where women in tech can meet hiring managers, recruiters, founders, and leaders involved in hiring decisions. Together, we’ll share practical advice, answer your questions, and create meaningful connections.
