Women Techmakers (WTM) is Google’s global program and brand for women in technology. As part of the global event series, we’ve hosted a WTM Summit Belfast since 2016, in celebration of International Women’s Day.
In its 4th year, Belfast’s edition of the global WTM event has grown with the community. In 2019 we are responding with our biggest event yet - a full day where we hear from speakers who will inspire, motivate, enthuse and relate to our audience of everyone, with talks highlighting the achievements of local women.
WTM Summit Belfast 2019 will take place on Saturday, 9th March 2019 as a full day conference at Queen’s University Belfast - Computer Science Building. For more information please visit our website.
