The Toast Summit: Shaping the Future of Tech
Tired of tech conferences that are just a bro-flex fests? Good news: The Toast Summit is nothing like that.
The Toast Summit is made for women in tech, by women in tech. Four years in, we've built a community that's not waiting around for the future of tech to include us, we're shaping it.
This year's theme, Shaping the Future of Tech, is exactly that: dream bigger, build smarter, and help design what comes next. Because women can’t change the system unless we are in it.
This isn't your average tech conference. Think a room full of women doing cool $h*t who actually feel seen, heard, and celebrated.
This event is for anyone of any gender identity who wants to make the tech industry more inclusive, whether you're launching your career, leading a team, an ally wanting to better support women in tech, or just tech-curious – we want you there.
Why should you be part of The Toast Summit?
Build a network that actually gets you somewhere. Skip the small talk and the business card pile-up. You'll leave with real connections to brilliant women and allies who can open doors; sponsors, collaborators, and connections.
Leave with a plan, not just inspiration. This isn't a "feel good for a day, forget it by Monday" situation. Every session is built to hand you something you can actually use.
Actually worth your day out of office. Productive conversations, and practical takeaways from women who've done the thing — the kind of day that changes the trajectory of your career, not just how you feel today. We also have a template you can use to help convince your employer to give you the day off and cover your conference fees.
What's on deck this year
We'll be revealing all the toasty details leading up to the event but here's a taste of what's cooking:
