Women in Tech special edition: real stories, honest insights, and powerful connections during Northern Michigan Startup Week
About this Event

Join us for a special Northern Michigan Startup Week edition of Women in Tech — our monthly gathering focused on connection, community, and growing together in tech.

This month, we’re spotlighting the incredible women already in our ecosystem. We’ll feature a candid panel of Women in Tech regulars — including career changers, founders, technologists, and leaders — sharing honest stories about building in Northern Michigan: the pivots, the risks, the breakthroughs, and the lessons learned.

After the panel conversation, we’ll open the floor for informal networking. Whether you’re looking for a collaborator, a client, a sounding board, or simply a friend who “gets it,” this is your space.

What to Expect:

  • Real conversations about careers and startups
  • Insight from women actively building in tech
  • A welcoming, low-pressure environment
  • A mix of returning faces and brand-new attendees
  • Students encouraged and welcome

Women in Tech is intentionally casual and easy to drop into. Some attendees work in deeply technical roles; others are adjacent to tech or exploring the field for the first time. What connects us is curiosity, ambition, and a desire to support one another.

This event is free and open to all who identify with and support women in tech. Registration is encouraged to ensure seating, but walk-ins are welcome.

Come for the conversation. Stay for the community.

Light refreshments will be served.
