About this event
We are delighted to invite you to attend the launch of www.TechFoundHer.com - a new community by women and for women celebrating female leaders and innovators.
Our theme for the event is 'women supporting other women'. We truly are stronger together.
At our event we will share our vision for TechFoundHer and invite you to join our movement.
In Dublin there are many awesome individual women who dedicate themselves to supporting other women entrepreneurs and women in tech. In a series of lighning talks you'll meet some of these legendary women and discover the purpose of their groups and activities.
