SUMMARY:What are we Missing? Rethinking Strategies to Advance Women in Technology
DESCRIPTION:*REGISTRATION REQUIRED. PLEASE CONTACT REBECCA SADWICK RSADWICK@LUSKIN.UCLA.EDU FOR REGISTRATION INFORMATION.  Event SummaryWhat Are We Missing? Rethinking\nStrategies to Advance Women in Technology (Conference to Advance Women in Tech) will explore effective\nways to advance women of all races\, backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses in\nthe tech sector.    \nStrategies to reduce gender inequality in the tech\nsector fall into three main categories: personal\, private and public. Rather\nthan focusing on personal strategies that place the onus of cultural change on\nindividuals\, this conference will focus on private and public strategies that\nfoster systemic change. Specifically we will address private strategies at the\nentrepreneurial and corporate levels as well as public strategies—such as non-profit\ninitiatives\, public-private partnerships and public policies—to result in\nmeasurable advancements for women in tech. \nThis one-day conference at UCLA will\nbe held on April 30\, 2015\, and will\ninclude two concurrent tracks of breakout sessions. Participants will be asked\nto choose one track to attend for both morning and afternoon sessions\, and will\nleave the event with specific\, actionable takeaways. \nTrack 1. Fostering Women as Tech Entrepreneurs in Startups\nand Small Tech FirmsWhat are effective strategies to foster female leadership in\nstartups and small businesses? The panels and discussion in this track will\nexplore government\, private\, and nonprofit strategies to foster female\nentrepreneurship. This will include a focus on funding as well as accelerators\,\nstartup\, and resource initiatives. \nTrack 2.  Attracting and Retaining\nWomen in Medium and Large CompaniesWhat are the public policies\,\ncorporate policies\, and workforce culture issues that affect the attraction and\nretention of women in tech? The panels and discussion in this track will\ndiscuss effective ways to create sustainable environments in which women and\ntheir employers prosper. \nIntended\nAudienceThis event aims to bring together:  \n●	Corporate leaders and employees●	Entrepreneurs\, and startup support institutions (incubators\, accelerators\, etc.)●	Non-profit leaders and advocates●	Academics\, STEM educators\, students\, and parents●	Policymakers and legislators●	Journalists and the mediaAgenda8:00 		Registration & Breakfast8:30		Welcome8:40		Morning Keynote Plenary9:45		First Breakout Session Panels	Track 1: Accelerators\, Incubators\, and other Startup Resources	Track 2: Corporate & Public Policies to Attract Women to Tech Companies11:00	Networking Break11:15	Second Breakout Session Panels	Track 1: Startup Funding Pipeline	Track 2: Policies for Building Retention12:30	Lunch1:15		Lunch Keynote1:45 		Breakout Discussions3:00		Presentation of Solutions: Summary of Breakout Tracks3:30		Afternoon Keynote3:50 		Closing Remarks4:00		Reception
