I met the brilliant Amy Cham at a Webgrrls networking event last week. By day, she’s a Technology & Marketing Convergence Manager at Tree House Agency, the Drupal powerhouses behind big, blog-heavy websites like the new FastCompany.com. By night, Amy is the new Managing Director of the New York City chapter of Girls in Tech.
After making a brief splash around last year’s Web 2.0 Expo here in New York, Girls in Tech is re-launching with a new leadership team in place. The mission, however, is the same: to empower, educate, and elevate the status of women working in technology fields.
Ok, on to the fun stuff. Girls in Tech NYC is having a “Relaunch” Launch Party next week to jumpstart community connections. Details:
Girls in Tech NYC Relaunch Launch Party
Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2009
Time: 6:30pm – 9:30pm
Location: M1-5 Lounge, 52 Walker Street (Between Church & Broadway)
Cost: $10 advance sale, $15 at the door
Juliette Powell, social media author and entrepreneur, and Joanne Colan, the current host of Rocketboom, will be speaking. Come for the networking, stay for the goodie bags and raffle. And tell the guys in your office they are welcome, too.
Hope to see you there!
