Girls in Tech - Germany

A letter to our community: 🫨🚨 It’s the end of GiT Germany (as we know it…) As some of you may have already heard, Girls in Tech Global, the organization that Girls in Tech Germany belongs to, is closing down. And with them, all chapters globally must close too. But before you panic… we’re not letting it stop us. For the past 3 years, as a team of incredible volunteers, we’ve hosted over 30 events in Berlin and beyond 🇩🇪 This community has grown rapidly in the past year, and we’re not ready to say goodbye to that momentum, and to all of you. So we are going to continue our mission, with the same team, same events, and same passion – and we hope that you will stay with us as we enter this next chapter. Meet Radia - the inclusive tech network ✨ We have been busy rebranding and launching a new organization with the same purpose, and would love to introduce you to Radia - the inclusive tech network. Inspired by network engineer and ‘Mother of the Internet’ Radia Perlman, Radia exists to bring people together, break stereotypes, and celebrate diversity in the tech industry. ❓ What does this mean for the community? All our events in the calendar will STILL take place, so don’t worry. The main thing we need from you, is to follow our new page Radia - the inclusive tech network as this one will soon be inactive 😢 On Instagram you can also find us @radia.network  https://lnkd.in/enk3tRkt A huge thank you for your continued support of the Girls in Tech mission and team – and thanks in advance for being a valued member of Radia - the inclusive tech network ❣ More news to come very soon on the new page!
