The first session of 2021, it kicks off with a Q&A panel discussion on what we want to change this year with Trish Keating, Executive Director, Tech Manchester and Patricia Gestoso, author of Life under lockdown: Report on the impact of COVID-19 on professional women’s unpaid work.

After the opening Q&A comes a lightning talk by an amazing founder and an audience Q&A panel with all speakers at the end. We will also fit in a healthy amount of networking so come ready to mingle!

The event should finish around 1:30pm.
