Women Who Tech - March 31

I’m really excited about this great event called the Women Who Tech telesummit. It was founded by Allyson Kapin, who is a founding partner of RAD campaign and an all-around great person. I worked with her back in the day on a campaign for the National Women’s Law Center. Anyhow, the telesummit is all about bringing together women who are involved in the technology industry in one way or another. I think it’s a fantastic idea, and I’m so glad to be a part of it!

I’ll be joining the amazing Sarah Dijulio from M&R Strategic Services and Nita Chaudhary from Moveon.org for a panel called “Build an Online Campaign and Save the World,” moderated by Ruby Sinreich of Orange Politics. It’s a real all-star cast and I have to say I’m stunned to be a part of such a great group! Hopefully I’ll have something to offer from my time at Care2.

Later in the day, there are two other great sessions that I’ll be attending and hopefully will have something to say about afterwards. Those are “Firing up your online list” with two amazing women: Madeline Stanionis of Watershed and Marie Jorgensen from Greenpeace, and “Improve this Blog Pitch” with Susan Getgood from Marketing Roadmaps, Mir Kamin of the WouldaShoulda Blog, and Maria Niles of Consumerpop Marketing Consulting.

So…that’s a ton of links, but you get the idea. Visit the site to learn more about Women Who Tech, and if there are any slots left, sign up! All of the net proceeds from the telesummit will benefit breast cancer research. There is also apparently an after-party that night in SF, which I will most definitely be attending.
