digitalUPLIFT Employer Showcase & TECwomen CONNECT Lunch

We are so excited to announce our first Employer Showcase Day! This is a day dedicated to celebrating the achievements of our digitalUplift Autumn 2023 graduates and a chance to meet some of the top tech employers in Cornwall.  We are also hosting an expert panel on the topic of the Future of Women in Work with a focus on jobs in Cornwall. 

Like all of our TECwomen CONNECT events you will also have a chance to hang out with women from across Cornwall who are currently working in (or interested in working in) tech and digital roles. This is your chance to connect with like-minded people all in a supportive and fun atmosphere, not to mention a free lunch!   

Why Attend our digitalUPLIFT Employer Showcase?

• Quality Networking: Connect with over 10 (and counting!) leading employers in the Cornwall tech space who are paving the way for women’s inclusion in tech.
• New Connections: This event is a unique opportunity to access a space full of inspiring women in the tech space. Make new connections, hear their stories and share your own. 
• Expert Insights: This event goes beyond the connections you will make. We have arranged an expert panel to discuss the Future of Work for Women and what they are looking for in future employees and job applicants. It should be an interesting topic for people both looking for new roles and those currently working in roles who might want to know more about progression opportunties. 
• Everyone is Welcome! Our Employers Showcase isn’t just for our UPLIFT graduates. This event is open to individuals across Cornwall, both in and out of the tech industry. We want everyone to be able to access rich connections and learning, no matter your background.
