EXCEPTIONAL LINE-UP OF SPEAKERS ANNOUNCED

EXCEPTIONAL LINE-UP OF SPEAKERS ANNOUNCED FOR THE INNOVATOR TRUST WOMEN IN TECH SHEVOLUTION EXPERIENCE 

 The countdown to the Innovator Trust’s annual Women In Tech SHEVOLUTION Experience has begun! With the trailblazing event just over two weeks away, the Innovator Trust is thrilled to announce an exceptional line-up of speakers, bringing together dynamic entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and technology enthusiasts, in celebration of women SMMEs in the world of technology.

ELEVATING THE CONVERSATION

Though representation, diversity, and inclusion of women in technology and entrepreneurship remain critical areas of concern within Africa, the Innovator Trust Women in Tech (WIT) Experience is elevating the conversation toward recognising the opportunities technology presents to solve these problems. On the 16th November 2023, women entrepreneurs, innovators, leaders of industry, and youth aspiring to careers in STEM fields will heed the call to action and join the SHEVOLUTION movement.

“The SHEVOLUTION theme this year is calling for less talk and more action in order for us to see tangible change for women entrepreneurs in the ICT sector. It is our hope that the SHEVOLUTION message reaches far beyond just this one event, and impacts other women in tech, other entrepreneurs, aspiring young girls interested in STEM, and of course, those communities across Africa who benefit most from the solutions that arise from tech innovation,” said Tashline Jooste, CEO of the Innovator Trust and founder of the Women In Tech Experience.
