About

AfriTech Hub - Women In Tech Summit

The lack of women currently working in STEM industries is no secret. In fact, it is an issue that continues to have its fair share of coverage. We, and others, have found that the cultures surrounding women in STEM have been shown, time and again, to be particularly challenging.

Yet many other women have managed to build highly successful careers with degrees in STEM disciplines. How did they do it?

This summit provides a platform for wide-ranging issues which capture contemporary developments in STEM within which a wide range of networking opportunities can be nurtured for future research, global collaboration, and leverage female talent in STEM fields.
