Everyone in tech wants more gender balance from the startup ecosystem, but the practical barriers to reach that goal are complex, and require buy-in from many players: From engineering and MBA colleges which produce the next generation of startup leaders, to the incubation/hackathon culture which fosters them, to the VC community who finance them, to the startup founders and executives who must then hire and manage a (hopefully) gender-balanced team, to the male and female employees working together every day. Join diverse leaders in the tech industry—including TechCrunch reporter Colleen Taylor, veteran designer/developer Julie Ann Horvath, and theMIX agency founder/CEO Vanessa Camones—for a panel with a focus on concrete results. They’ll discuss the challenges they’ve encountered—and offer solid advice and solutions for overcoming them, so we can all work together to build a more inclusive (and therefore more successful) startup ecosystem.
