Philly Tech Sistas and ROAR for Good are partnering to bring you the Philly Tech Week 2020 premiere of the Chasing Grace Project: “Progress The Power of Community,” featuring Philadelphia's own Yasmine Mustafa!

After the film screening, we’ll host a panel discussion highlighting members of Philadelphia’s diverse tech community to discuss different ways more women can get involved in technology.

Through this partnership with The Chasing Grace Project, we aim to help recruit and retain women, especially women of color, for an industry that desperately needs their contribution and to give women a platform to be seen and heard for their experiences.
