Hi all, I wanted to let you know that the second Manchester Girl Geek
Dinner is taking place this Friday. Come along if you can and bring
your partners.
--
Manchester Girl Geek Dinner #2
When: 7:00 PM Friday, July 25, 2008
Where: University of Salford, University House, University of Salford,
Salford, England M5 4WT
Who can attend: Girl Geeks! A lady who has an interest, or is involved
in the Science, Engineering and Technology industries. Blokes can come
too, but you need an invite from a Geek Girl!
Cost: Around £15 (includes 3 course meal, coffee and drinks)
What:
For those who haven't been before, it's dinner, wine, talks from
inspirational women, networking and discussions afterwards.
Currently two talks planned, if you want to get involved and speak
about women in engineering, science and technology, please do get in
touch.
The talks:
Gemma Cameron - How to get young people interested in Geekery!
Rachael Hoyle - winner of the IET's Dyson Young Woman Apprentice of
Year Award. Rachael will be delivering an extremely interesting talk
around the stigma of women in engineering. This will cover how ethics
and equality are the dominant factors in employment, and whether this
is damaging the industry, rather than encouraging diversity.
