EOY Celebration: Beyond the Keyboard - Unseen Opportunities in Business & Tech (WIA Australia & IT Girls Rock)

Year End Celebration of Women in Architecture, Business & Technology! 

Join us for our year-end celebration that brings together Women in Architecture Australia (WIA) and IT Girls Rock’s Women Rocking Tech initiative. This event celebrates the roles in tech and business where women shine but aren’t always seen.

Hosted by Darryl Carr and Gry Stene, we’ll dive into a world of diverse careers in the cross-section between business and tech, showcasing career pathways that have the potential to shape our organisations. You’ll hear from accomplished women who drive innovation – from business architecture to tech strategy and beyond.

Enjoy a warm welcome, an engaging speaker and panel discussion, door prizes, giveaways, and a great networking session with food and drinks to connect with like-minded professionals, foster new relationships, and open doors to new possibilities.

Let’s celebrate the expertise, diversity, and achievements of women and allies creating change across business, architecture and tech!

This is an inclusive event, for ALL of us who would like to see greater inclusion and equality in these business and technology roles, from VISION to IMPACT.

We look forward to seeing you there, as we farewell 2024, and look forward to a more inclusive and supportive 2025.

About Women in Architecture (WIA) Australia

We support architecting impactful outcomes through diversity of thought and representation. Well-architected organisations to support resilience and success require more architects. We are cultivating a supportive and inclusive community to grow the architecture community and outcomes the discipline can yield.
