Microsoft is celebrating Women in Technology by hosting a special forum called “Geek Girls” with five female IT professionals at Tech-Ed Middle East this year. At this forum, the selected girls will be available for interaction and also Microsoft executives will share insights into Successful Career Development Strategies for Women in IT and how to maintain a Healthy and Sustainable Work/Life Balance.
IT is an industry that is perceived as male dominated. As more and more women join the IT workforce, Microsoft is helping to erode this misconception through influencing business policy and making IT an attractive choice, paving the way for more women to join the industry. The event is will be held at Dubai Rooms, World Trade Centre, Level 1, on March 9th, 2011 between 12:45 to 14:00.
