Description

Are you fascinated by turning ideas into tech products?

Do you enjoy hearing startup founders tell their stories?

Then this event is for you!

Join us at the next #FemaleTechFounder Night on 7 March at Federation House, Manchester where a panel of four female tech founders and co-founders will join forces to tell their stories, celebrate their successes and share what they're looking forward to.

What started out as a launch event for Assenty has evolved into a forum for female founders in tech to share their experiences and support one another.

Please note: This event is not just for women!

Everyone interested in tech, startups and everything that goes into creating products users love is invited!

It kicks off with drinks and networking at 6pm, sponsored by the lovely people at ThoughtWorks, followed by a Q&A panel discussion on the role of mentors. After this comes four awesome lightning talks featuring our founders and a Q&A panel with all four speakers at the end. The event should finish around 8:30pm.

Speakers:

Emma Ryan (@emmaryan), Co-Founder, Wattl

Dot McCarthy (@DotMcCarthy), Founder, Farmer2Foodie

Tanya Nicol (@TanyaNicol), Founder, Tripptee.com

PJ Surani (@PJSurani), Digital Success Manager, Computer Rock

Q&A Host: Claire-Marie Boggiano (@CMBoggiano), director, Lurig Ltd

Also joining us for the Q&A panel discussion on mentoring is:

Nicola Ellis (@Nic_Ellis88), Programme Manager, Tech Manchester

Lauren Halket, Founder, Key Talent Personnel

It is free to attend but registration is required.
