Dr. Lucy Agyepong, Associate Dean of Engineering, Academic City University College, Suzanne Diop, Head Of Nestle Business Services For Sub Saharan Africa, and the Keynote address by the Minister of Communications and Digitalisation, Mrs. Ursula Owusu-Ekuful.
According to the Director of Corporate Affairs and Media Relations at the Ghana India Kofi Annan ICT Center, Kobi Hemaa Osisiadan-Bekoe, women have been breaking barriers and pushing boundaries in tech for centuries, yet still, women are underrepresented in tech.
“At the Females in Tech Conference, we bring together women from across the tech industry to share their stories and experiences. We will discuss various topics, from leadership and career development to diversity and inclusion. There will also be networking opportunities, allowing women to connect and learn new skills,” she added.
The event, organised in partnership with the Ministry of Communications & Digitalisation and the National Information Technology Agency (NITA), will be held at the Kofi Annan ICT Centre auditorium opposite the Council of State Building near Parliament House. It will inspire a new generation of females in tech.
