About this Event
Join Women in Tech & Entrepreneurship and the League of Women Voters for a nonpartisan Voter Education Happy Hour in Fort Lauderdale. This relaxed community gathering is designed to help women and allies feel more informed, prepared, and confident heading into election season while connecting with founders, technologists, business leaders, advocates, and local changemakers across the tech and entrepreneurial ecosystem.
What to Expect:
Warm Welcome: Come as you are, come when you can. There's no such thing as late, over dressed, underdressed. At our events you'll meet a warm and welcoming community of supportive, ambitious women who want to meet you!
Nonpartisan Voter Education: This happy hour is designed to help our community feel more prepared, informed, and confident heading into election season. In partnership with the League of Women Voters, we’ll share practical, nonpartisan resources around voter registration, election readiness, and how to find trustworthy information before you cast your ballot.
Better Networking: We think differently at Women in Tech & Entrepreneurship. We want to connect about ideas, industry disruptions, personal passions, and big audacious dreams. We keep our events simple so we can focus our energy on authentic connections, and the culture we've created leads to better connections and deeper relationships for our members.
Interesting People at Every Stage of Their Journeys: Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting your journey, there's someone here for you. We're proud to be 3X more diverse than the tech sector as a whole and we're all on unique journeys - which means we all offer out-of-the-box perspectives to help every member breakthrough and level up.
Venue Spotlight:
Where secrets are shared, stories are made, and every night feels like one worth remembering. Tucked away on Sunrise Blvd inside the Sunness Supper Club, Bar Betty is Fort Lauderdale's best-kept speakeasy — a vintage-inspired escape that invites you to step back in time to an era of mystery and intrigue. Named after owner Michael Stanley's grandmother, this hidden gem is accessible through a secret staircase, and behind that door you'll find expertly crafted cocktails, thoughtfully selected wines, and live entertainment that sets the perfect mood for a night of real connection. Come for the ambiance, stay for the stories.
PS: To keep our community free for members, food and drinks at our events are self-pay. If you're interested in changing that (AKA sponsoring this event), reach out to us at !
