Together Digital San Fransisco October OPEN Meetup: Diversity & Inclusion

Ensuring that all women of all races, sexual orientations, ages, stages and backgrounds are empowered and have a seat at the table is crucial. Let’s be honest - we’ve come a long way, but there is still a lot of work to do. Let’s talk about the current state of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and identify the most important ways we can motivate change for the future.
