HYDERABAD CHAPTERS

Several initiatives such as specific learning circles for IoT, cloud computing, healthtech etc., hackathons, coaching through WeAce allies and development programs for women in different stages of their careers are underway.

From helping women start their careers in technology and transition from manager to leader, to helping them manage their maternity period without hampering their professional life, and second career commencement and support, the WeAce Hyderabad chapter is contributing towards fulfilling the dual aim of meeting the industry-wide demand for skilled technologists and improving women’s progression and representation in a gender-diverse STEM leadership.
