Women In Tech May

When you think about working in “tech”, what do you imagine? It might quite possibly be something along the lines of computers, coding, robots, silicon valley… and men?

With this series we aim to challenge these stereotypes by demonstrating the broad range of careers and skills that fall under the category of “tech”, as well as the diverse range of people who work within tech, especially women.


In May, we have Katinka Jussie Lønning Brurberg, a Client Consulting Analyst, as a guest speaker for our Women in Tech session.

Join us for a conversation with the inspiring Katinka Jussie Lønning Brurberg, who has carved out her space working in tech. We will hear about the journey she took to find herself in her current role, the barriers she overcame, and what opportunities she sees opening up within the industry.

This event will open up the conversation about what it takes to be a woman in tech, supportive networks and tools and professional development and employment opportunities.

We hope you will join us!
