It’s Confirmed: Women Love Tech! And the participants of womENcourage Celebration of Women in Computing deemed that the Celebration was a huge success!

The Celebration exceeded everyone’s expectations, providing excellent opportunities to meet and connect, from the lively socializing during the career fair and the poster session before the opening Keynote (on Friday 25th September) to the ending Keynote on Saturday afternoon.
“I wanted to change the world… So I became a computer scientist“, declared a PhD student of computer science at Cambridge University during a discussion called “What can you do to change the world?”, part of our first ACM-W Europe Conference. Computer scientists from 28 countries convened in Manchester, UK on Saturday March 1st for the first womENcourage celebration of women in computing.
