About the organizer
Trans*H4CK creates tech for the transgender community & visibility for trans technologists and entrepreneurs. We provide hackathons, a speaker series and other programming that centers trans and non-binary individuals.
Our speaker series has featured the stories of leading transgender executives, innovators, and emerging leaders--stories which were previously absent from the tech landscape. Learn more about our latest initiative #IBUILD4 at transhack.org/ibuild4. We launched #transh4cksurvey — the first-ever trans in tech survey — in December of 2015. We aim to quantify and support the contributions of trans and non-binary individuals working with tech.
