About WomenInTechPK
An inclusive, women only community encouraging connections to Support, Empower and Inspire!
There is a persistent lack of representation of the Pakistani woman on not just public forums but also in areas of public speaking, access to opportunities and especially on the broader technological conversations. Keeping in view, the critical need of unifying the scattered voice of women in the local tech landscape to enable diversity, the WomenInTechPK community was launched in September 2016. The platform started out as a Facebook group, to support and encourage Pakistani female technologists to actively participate in professional and public forums.
WomenInTechPK is a women-only community offering a platform where members can talk freely about professional and career-related issues, seek advice as well as opportunities, find mentors and, forge organizational alliances and individual collaborations. It also arranges offline networking events and meet-ups with focused agenda to benefit the entire community. Our goal is to help build individual and personal connections, where women can formulate strategies towards creating a more diversified and inclusive environment in Pakistan for women technologists.
We are presently collaborating with several local communities, organizations and non-government bodies (NGOs); aiming to create more visibility for our community members.



Why It Matters?
Women constitute a major percentage of the total population in Pakistan and their participation is a disruptive force that can fuel the tech industry not only locally but internationally. WomenInTechPK offers a supportive and safe environment for women where they can learn technical and interpersonal skills through our wide array of Programs!
