Hello Members!
Sharecase is just a few days away! As you know, we're passionate about our community and we felt it was important to have a meaningful conversation about gender equity in technology in a UCSF-wide forum. We'd love to see you at our panel discussion and the mixer immediately following (details below). Our panelists represent a variety of experiences and roles at UCSF and will share inspiring points of view about the current and future states of gender equity and diversity in technology. While at Sharecase, please make sure to stop by our booth to pick up some WIT@UCSF member swag and to say hello. Make sure to register if you haven't already!
Also, please help us spread the word about the panel. A lot of time and thought went into assembling the panelists and developing their questions, so we want to pack the house! We'd greatly appreciate if you would download and forward the flyer to your network.
A few words of thanks: Thank you to our members who are spending time volunteering at our booth--you all rock. We'd also like to thank Jane Wong, Associate CIO, for being our champion and sponsor. We couldn't have put together the event without her support! And thank you in advance to everyone who can make it. By showing up, you are demonstrating that this topic is important.
Hope to see you there.
Power on!
