technology in the Silicon Valley.

Girl Geek Dinners were founded August 2005 in London as a result of one girl geek who got annoyed and frustrated about being one of the only females attending technical events. She was tired of being assumed to be marketing, tired of constantly having to prove herself and decided that she just wanted a change and to be treated just the same as any other geek out there, gender and age aside.
After all to be geeky is to be intelligent, have passion for a subject, and to know that subject in depth. It’s not at all about being better than others, or about gender, race, religion or anything else. Those things just detract from the real fun stuff, the technology, the innovation, and the spread of new ideas.
