NetApp : Building a Community of Women In Technology at NetApp INSIGHT 2019

We were pleased to host more than 400 Women in Technology Luncheon and panel discussion attendees duringthe 2018 conference. This year, we are doing more to raise the profile of all women presenting at NetApp INSIGHT. We want to highlight the sessions led by women in our special Women InTech agenda trackand encourage you to add this track to your agenda. We are building a community of WIT speakers with workshops and activities that started months before INSIGHT.

These community efforts are designed to build and strengthen the WIT speaker community across NetApp. We have included presentation feedback, support and social coaching for other key events. Our WIT speaker community members have presented during the recent 2019Grace Hopper Celebration, the Women of Color Conference, and HACU Annual Conference. This effort includes support for WIT speakers across these events as well as our own conference,NetApp INSIGHT.

We are excited to host aCelebration of Women in Technology Breakfaston Wednesday, October 30,2019 to recognize these speakers and participants, as well as encourage executive networking and engagementfor attendees.
